In my twenty years in the field of data analysis I have watched many organizations fail in their implementation of relational data systems. The successes I have witnessed were the products of information analysts and database designers who understood the relational model.


This is the most (and perhaps the only) readable book on the subject of the Relational Model which is addressed to real-world practitioners. It will clarify your thinking.


If you never write SQL code, you don't need this book. Otherwise, you probably do.
