Hacker News Stories and Comments

All the comments and stories posted to Hacker News that reference this book.
If you want something more advanced and fundamental, I'd recommend classic Database System Implementation[0] by Hector Garcia-Molina; Jennifer D. Widom; Jeffrey D. Ullman. It's still relevant. Technologies change, but fundamental principles and algorithms... change order of magnitude slower.

And yes, it's that Ullman.

I have a copy of https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0130402648 and while I don't think it'll win any "best textbook ever" awards it presents all the basic concepts in a straightforward if somewhat simple way.
