complete overview
Beware, the book does not give a quick guide to tune your database applications. It is a complete introduction into and discussion of materialized views - including backgrounds, algorithms, tests, etc.

I find the book's approach very good. I did not miss anything. The vendor dependent implementations of mv are not really discussed, but you can find information on that topic from the vendors themselfs quiet easily anyway.

If you are interested in the topic and are familiar with relational algebra and sql this book is worth a look.
