Data analysis for database design Book

Data analysis for database design is a subject of great practical value to systems analysts and designers. This classical text has been updated to ensure that recent developments concerning relational databases are included. In particular, there is a new section on the object-oriented approach, and a detailed case study outlining the use of SQL in first and second level design. The book explains techniques from a practical stand-point by using small-scale realistic examples and 'answer pointers' at the end of each chapter to encourage understanding.
