Database Concepts is your hands-on guide to creating and managing small databases. This flexible text from 2 of the world's leading database authorities focuses on database concepts, rather than the features and functions of a particular product. As a result, it can be used to work with whichever software best suits your needs. You'll practice working with 3 complete sample databases that run throughout key potions of the text. You'll also benefit from 3 ongoing projects that will challenge you to apply concepts and techniques to real business situations.

In the 9th Edition, Microsoft® Office 2019 (particularly Microsoft Access™ 2019) is the basic software used and is shown running on Microsoft Windows™ 10.
