I hate this book
This is the required textbook for a graduate course I am taking in Information Studies. Having been assured by the professor that one needed no math, science, or computer background to do well, I put aside my reservations. But here we are, one month into the semester, with this book as our only teaching tool, and I am failing the course. (I thus far have a 3.93 average in grad school)The bottom line - this book is NOT a good instructional tool, especially not for beginners.

its awful
this book is very dry and boring, i believe that anyone can learn anything if its explained correctly. having been recommended this book by my university i bought it ( i was recommended deitel for java and that proved excellent so i stuck with their recommendation) but when i try to read this book i feel myself; not understanding but falling asleep. its more like a reference book and the chapters dont seem to be in any order. i'm annoyed that i have wasted my money on this book.

Informative & Easy to understand
This book is also one of my reference in database systems. Why? Because this book was written in a very informative way, it covers most of modern databases topic, e.g. RDBMS SQL3 ORDBMS OODBMS etc. Also it is easy to understand, lot of examples, etc. It is worth buying this book. I think it is suitable for any beginner or student or experienced guys who need a clearer understandable way.Although this book is not enough, but it is a great starting point.
