Practical Web Database Design

Let's cut straight to the chase - this book will take you from knowing what a database is, to knowing how to design one effectively so that it makes good use of storage space, and provides fast and efficient data access. From first principles to implementation, we take the woe from normalization and the worry from stored procedures. This book doesn't present platform-specific database implementations, but takes you through the steps you need to follow to ensure that your database does the job you want it to do, and does it well.Thearon Willis is the author of 'Practical Web Database Design', published 2003 under ISBN 9781590591949 and ISBN 1590591941.
