Jeff Wiegand,  

I put the heading in the subject in the mail.  

Following two books were suggested to me by Jeff Stevenson (one of the list member).  

  1. "Designing Quality Databases with IDEF1X Information Models", by Thomas Bruce ISBN: 0932633188
  2. "The Data Model Resource Book", by Len Silverston, Kent Graziano, and Bill Inmon ISBN: 0471153648

The first one is very interesting and informative. I do not have second book and hence no comments.
