Summary: A great intro book to databases!
Comment: I had no experience with databases before I read this book. I didn't even understand the basic concepts. This book includes basic definitions, detailed database design, SQL statements, how to use Microsoft Access (creating tables, relationships, queries, forms and reports). If you have little or no experience with databases, you will definitely take advantage of this book. It's very easy to read.

Summary: A great book lives up to the title!!!
Comment: Now here is a book that really DOES live up to its title! Even for those of us who have built databases before, it contains surprises and would hold a worthy place on your shelf for review purposes if nothing else. As another review said, the additional info on the use of Visio is a nice touch. I personally had a few problems using it, but I was using Visio 2002 and Access 2002, and not version 2000, as the book used. This could have been the source of my problems, (that or an inability for me to follow instructions!) Either way though, the book really does have good, usable information under its covers, and is a worthy read for neophytes as well as the more experienced database mechanics and architects.

Summary: Including Visio was a great idea!
Comment: I have been looking for a basic, easy to understand book on database analysis and design. It seems like any of the design tools on the market cost 000's of dollars. I had no idea Visio had the abilities Mr. Petersen discussed and illustrated in his book.
The one chapter that discussed how to use Visio as a database design tool is enough to convince me this book is a must have for anybody wishing to learn how datbases work!
