Always hard to read and very dated now, I would skip this unless you want a really good understand of the evolving ideas about how to structure data.
Never imagined a company-sponsored book could be so good. Argues that business rules belong in a relational database, in the form of declarative integrity constraints.
Peerless, compelling, revolutionary and indispensable, even if you don't do databases.
