This text introduces the subject of object-oriented databases. It provides: a survey of the main features of the relational model, outlining the limitations of this approach for the new applications now required; the principles on which object-oriented systems are based; an explanation on how to move from concepts to systems; and the techniques needed to implement object-oriented systems. End of chapter exercises are included, and there is a running case study throughout.
