Introductory Relational Database Design for Business, with Microsoft Access – PDF

Relational databases are a common and lasting form of information technology, but most textbooks on relational database design require a strong background in computer science. Textbooks that focus on specific software tools like Microsoft Access usually only cover the user interface, leaving out the basics of database structure. This eBook, developed by Professor Jonathan Eckstein with more than 20 years of experience teaching MIS courses at Rutgers Business School, fills this gap for readers without any previous computer science or programming experience. Relational Database Design for Business, with Microsoft Access, (PDF) provides a real-world approach to help readers develop a solid understanding of relational database design quickly. The book uses examples from finance and business, making it easy for readers to learn how to design and manipulate databases. By the end of the book, readers will know how to build relational databases with multiple tables and create complete Microsoft Access applications around those databases. This text:

• Covers conceptual basics and advanced design techniques
• Uses real-world examples from finance, business, and other fields
• Helps readers quickly learn necessary skills for deploying and developing relational databases with Microsoft Access
• Guides readers in data management and design, relational database theory, multiple tables, Microsoft Access features, formulating questions in SQL, and normalization

Introduction to Relational Database Design for Business with Microsoft Access is the ultimate guide for graduate and undergraduate students in finance, business, and data analysis without prior experience in database design. While the book uses Microsoft Access for a hands-on learning experience, most of the skills learned apply to other relational database software as well. Please note that the product only includes the eBook, Introduction to Relational Database Design for Business with Microsoft Access in PDF format. Access codes or software are NOT included.
