![]() ![]() SQL is covered only briefly, and alternatives to SQL not at all. ![]() The text is not really a guide to implementation or use, and is focused mostly on design. (For example, transactions and isolation levels are not covered.) There is also relatively little coverage of subqueries or more complex queries in general. The text is on the shorter side, so some concepts are covered only briefly, or not at all. The text covers much of the terminology I would want students to become familiar with, as well as the major concepts required for understanding database systems in the abstract. This is very much a Database Design text, not a Database Implementation text, and in those grounds is reasonably comprehensive.
