Not your traditional database book in three fundamental ways. First, it is deeper than most database textbooks in its coverage of data modeling and SQL. Second, the treatments of data modeling and SQL are intertwined because the author’s teaching experience indicates that students more readily understand the intent of data modeling when they grasp the long-term goal— querying a well-designed relational database. Third, the book is broader than most database books, encompassing the design and maintenance of computer-based organization memory.

Seven Stories of How Americans Fought for Their Mental Health Through Federal Legislation
Michael Compton, Marc Manseau

Mental health does not exist in a vacuum. By taking a case study approach to seven key American pieces of federal legislation―among them, the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1933, the Social Security Act of 1935, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965―it demonstrates how public policies, even when not explicitly mental health–related, can shape social determinants and improve mental health in the United States. In sharing examples of how individuals and groups have successfully advocated for policy changes, the authors illustrate how important advocacy work can be accomplished and inspire readers to get involved in similar work to improve mental health today and in the future.
