Dear Iggy,
In his "Book Notes" section in the August 2016 issue of
the NoCOUG Journal, NoCOUG book reviewer Brian Hitchcock says:
“You should read this book. If you are starting out in
a database-related career—which I think includes most, if not all, programming
jobs—or if you are changing fields within the broader database field, the
information in this book will be very helpful in the interview and on the job.
I learned a great deal about things that I had already heard about along with
many others that I have never heard of. Of all the books I have reviewed over
many years, this is one of the very few that I think everyone could benefit
from. I don’t think I’ve read a database book that presented so much material
that was new to me in such a short time. This book is an excellent review of
where we are, where it all came from, and where we are going. It is also an
excellent value because it doesn’t take long to read and you will learn a great
deal about the entire database field.”
You may not have time to read a whole book—even if it
is relatively short like this one—but you certainly have the time to read
Brian's detailed notes. Click on the picture to download this issue and please
