Rezensionen

From the book reviews:

"The author has written a number of papers on data integration theory and this book is a compendium of these papers ... . It would be an ideal companion for a research student working with theoretical database concepts." (M. S. Krishnamoorthy, Computing Reviews, September, 2014)

"All topics are studied in detail consistently in terms of category theory. ... Each chapter of the book ends with a couple of 'review questions'. Textbooks often provide teachers with supplementary material indicating the correct answer - surely this will also be the case here. Also by 'researchers interested in methods of computer science used in databases and logics, and the original contributions - a category theory applied to databases" will this book be well accepted." (Antonin Riha, zbMATH, Vol. 1325. 68004, 2016)
