Not "Demystifying" at all!

I found this book to be really dry and not at all demystifying! It went in depth into the history of databases, who created them, and why it was groundbreaking. I'm sure that's very interesting to some people, but not to someone who is trying to make sense of it all. The author seems to have had a difficult time determining what is necessary for comprehension and what is merely icing on the cake for trivia fans. Since he couldn't make the determination, he just included it all! If you are a computer technology science major or something, you might like this book. If you just want a book to help you to understand databases in general (as a foundation), this is not the book for you.

Databases are explained very well

I recently purchased this book and have only gotten through Chapter 2. So far I think that the book gives a good explanation of databases.

Not far enough into the book to offer much more, but the writing is good. The author makes it easy to understand the technical jargon.

Great book

Thumbs up. There are lots of reviews there already, and what they say are mostly true in my opinion. It is a good book to read to get general basic knowledge of Database. However might not be as good if you want to learn a specific database software. The book is written in simple and clear words, and is very organized, which is a huge bonus in my rating.

good condition but bad shipping

item was delivered in a good condition but it was not shipped to my address even though I specified accurate address with apt number. I had to pick it up from post office!

Simplified & easy to understand

The book is very helpful for novice learners of databases. It provides step-by-step guide to those who are new in database design and Microsoft Access. Key concepts like normalization are presented very clearly with relevant examples in business.

Through clear language, step-by-step discussions, and quizzes at the end of each chapter, the author makes databases easy. Quickly learn the core skills needed to design, configure, manage, and manipulate databases, whether at work or at home. Topics such as exploring different database models, planning their design, minimizing redundant data, designing tables, applying database design concepts, and implementing database security are covered. This is that fast, easy-to-understand tutorial that you?ve been looking for.
