À propos de l?auteur

Dr. Mark Whitehorn has a boundless fascination for databases. He teaches relational database theory and practice at the University of Dundee, writes a monthly database column in Personal Computer World and is a popular commentator on the computer industry. His enthusiasm, clarity of communication and devotion to real-world examples are much appreciated by students and readers alike. He is co-author of "Inside Relational Databases-with examples in Access", also available from Springer-Verlag.

Mary Whitehorn writes for the computer press, specializing in a series of the "how to do x in 17 easy steps" type. Her ability to focus on what's actually necessary, eschewing ail obfuscation and unnecessary detail, is valued by readers approaching a new topic. Apart from writing, she cooks with some success and gardens with rather less, though strangely the herbs usually manage to survive her ministrations.
