Database Management: With Website Development Applications

　以前，同じようなタイトルの書評を書きました。
ソフトウェアとの対応が書かれているデータベース教科書 | オブジェクト脳@kcg
　今度もKCGI図書室で見つけた書籍です。RDB(リレーショナルデータベース）あるいは関係データベースの書籍というのは，SQLの具体例は書かれているのですが，ソフトウェアつまり，Oracle, MS SQL Server, Accessなどに即した記述をした教科書は日本にはほとんどありません。このAccess 2000をつかって，ウェブデータベースを作っていきます。
　内容は，関係データベースモデル，構造化問い合わせ言語（SQL），データモデリングとE-R対応，データベース設計，データベース管理となっています。
　本書には中文版が存在して，KCGI図書室にもあります。中文版には第７章がありません。
