Incidentally, I grabbed this book after you recommended it. I found
it a little vague (owing to its age no doubt), so I obtained
_Transactional Information Systems_ by Weikum and Vossen. While I
can't recommend either one since I've completed neither, the Weikum
book certainly seems to start out on the right foot.

Fortunately, either book can be searched to the heart's content.
