Databases Illuminated

Databases Illuminated integrates database theory with a hands-on approach to database design and implementation. The text is specifically designed for modern database students, who will be expected to know both theory and applied design and implementation as professionals in the field. The author presents a sample database project throughout the text, using this unique pedagogical tool to take students step-by-step through all the key concepts of database theory, design, and management. These major concepts are rehearsed in independent student projects that follow each chapter.
