review 1: I'm not going to say that I'm an expert on databases now, but I really like the visual instruction style of the manga guide series. This one tells the story of a princess in charge of her kingdom's fruit selling who finds a fairy who knows all about databases to help her. I think the best part was about why you shouldn't just put all your data in one spreadsheet (my usual approach to data management). Basically if you have to repeat information anywhere, you need another spreadsheet. You want to be able to change the data in one spot and have it change it everywhere. The little diagrams helped me to visualize where the data was and what kinds of things go one when multiple people access a database. I have a new appreciation for Google drive!
review 2: Among the... more Pace Bus patrons today, I must have looked the most pervy because I was reading this. Okay, so this packages a riduculous, ridculously cool and silly, manga comic book, with the serious minded basics of databases. It's all a bit silly, and I can't say a learned a ton. but I thought the juxtaposition was interesting and fun, and brings a level of entertainment to the content. If there was more content, i'd be an even bigger fan. less
