Review title: Complete waste of paper, poorly written book.
Product review: I had to buy this book for my graduate level course, and what a waste of money and paper. The authors of this book are completely out of touch with current database technologies in the market. This book contains superfluous and invalid assumptions, and topics. Not only the materials are not correct, but the format it is presented, is very confusing and useless. I could not rate this book less than 1, otherwise I would. If your instructor is asking to buy this book for any classes, just drop the course.
