Read Reviews for The Advantage Series: Access 2002- Complete Write review James Kindell reviewed The Advantage Series: Access 2002- Complete on June 09, 2010 The Advantage Series: Access 2002- Complete This book is by far the best database book I have ever read. It gives detailed explanation in a top-down approach in every part of database system. However, it is not perfect because the book focuses on theoretical perspective but lack of practical implementation pointer. But, I like this book better than the cow book, which filled with typos and ill-printed pages.
