So far as I'm aware, Edgar Dijkstra did not do significant work in the area of relational database theory. I understand that you like his approaches to things, and I share much of your appreciation for Dijkstra's work... but I'm looking for something a little more specific here.

I will look into the books you mentioned beforehand, and see what other opinions I can find to distinguish between them. Thanks.
