Beginning Database Design- P14:This book focuses on the relational database model from a beginning perspective. The title is, therefore, Beginning Database Design.

Tables are linked together using what are called relationships. You can build tables with relationships between those tables, not only to organize your data, but also to allow later retrieval of information from the database | Planning and Preparation Through Analysis The business rules of a company when applied to a database model become that database model. The business rules are the tables relationships between those tables and even the constraint rules in addition to referential integrity constraints in a database.
