To be fair, when I started reading the book I was looking for a mathematical coverage of realtional algebra and other math that underlies all relational database models including Oracle and SQL Server. I was seeking the common priciples that unite these systems. The book does cover relational theory but I did not find it to be organized from the mathematical point of view. Rather than building database theory from the math, the book seemed to attempt to overlay modern databases on top of the algebra. |
