I studied the OU databasees courses and still have the course books (maybe the disks of sample databases etc too). It was a course mainly theoretical in nature with a small amount of SQL. You are very welcome to borrow them but I would like them back at some stage as I occasionally use them for reference on things such as normalisation. Contact me off list if you are interested.

I don't mean books that explain various MySQL or Oracle commands, but really books that explain the way databases (and things such as searches and indexes) really work. I have a background in maths, so it is not a problem if it is slightly theoretical. Thanks.
