520 _a"The advent of database management systems for personal computers in the 1980s moved database management beyond the realm of database professionals and into the hands of everyday users from all segments of the population. A field once limited to highly trained users of large, mainframe, database-oriented application systems became an essential productivity tool for such diverse groups as home computer users, small business owners, and end-users in large organizations. This book is intended for anyone who is interested in gaining some familiarity with database management. It is appropriate for students in introductory database classes in computer science or information systems programs. It is appropriate for students in database courses in related disciplines, such as business, at either the undergraduate or graduate level. Such students require a general understanding of the database environment. In addition, courses introducing students of any discipline to database management have become increasingly popular over the past few years, and this book is ideal for such courses. It is also appropriate for individuals considering purchasing a PC-based database package and who want to make effective use of such a package."
