Physical Database Design Using Oracle
Donald K. Burleson
Noticed this book, as it is a recently-published book on database design. Not as detailed and researched as one of the typical O'Reilly publisher books, but nonetheless, still pretty interesting in the reccomendations and suggestions the author had to say.
Was somewhat perplexed by the sexist remarks on page 19, however. The author described what an "Educated Idiot" is, someone with a PhD and that is given a role in database design, but has "no real-world experience", and "lacks necessary technical skills". In addressing such a person, the author uses the word "she" multiple times, as if this person must be a woman. There is a reference again on the next page too... Amusing...
