Post takes a less a theory-oriented, conceptual approach and more of a hands-on, practical approach to DBMS, focusing on teaching students how to design, build, manage database applications and giving them practice doing so. As with the second edition, Post continues to include many examples, exercises, and 2 sample databases to give students plenty of hands-on practice.
