Information Modeling and Relational Databases
Information Modeling and Relational Databases provides an
introduction to ORM (Object Role Modeling)-and much more. In
fact, it's the only book to go beyond introductory coverage and
provide all of the in-depth instruction you need to transform
knowledge from domain experts into a sound database design.

Inside, ORM authority Terry Halpin blends conceptual information
with practical instruction that will let you begin using ORM
effectively as soon as possible. Supported by examples,
exercises, and useful background information, his step-by-step
approach teaches you to develop a natural-language-based ORM
model and then, where needed, abstract ER and UML models from it.
This book will quickly make you proficient in the modeling
technique that is proving vital to the development of accurate
and efficient databases that best meet real business
objectives.
