I flipped through it. Im also taking an academic database class. I've read ahead in the book for class, it seems like alot of Dan Tow's writing comes from academia. Which is significantly different from most professional books and papers.

It seems like alot of us want to read it, but realize its such a slow read that we want someone else to tell us if its good first. I feel bad for the author...
