Delivering concise, cutting-edge coverage, CONCEPTS OF DATABASE MANAGEMENT, 8e uses real-world cases, examples, and illustrations to give students a thorough understanding of such critical issues as database design, data integrity, concurrent updates, data security, and more.

It provides detailed coverage of the relational model (including QBE and SQL), normalization and views, database administration and management, and more.
