Negative Positive
Title: Grossly overpriced and useless
Review: This book is grossly overpriced and not useful, at all, to anyone trying to learn about databases. I find some of the "positive" reviews to be unfounded and grossly biased (they must be friends of Kronke or bad instructors trying to justify their use of this BAD textbook). I would suggest that both Kroenke and his buddies look for a dumbies book on "how to write a textbook." Note how the publishers comments about this book refer to it as discussing "fundamentals" and providing a "foundation" on databases. This book fails completely at doing either of those things.
Is the review positive or negative?
