Len Silverston & Paul Agnew 
The Data Model Resource Book 
Volume 3: Universal Patterns for Data Modeling

This third volume of the best-selling ‘Data Model Resource Book’
series revolutionizes the data modeling discipline by answering the
question ‘How can you save significant time while improving the
quality of any type of data modeling effort?’ In contrast to the
first two volumes, this new volume focuses on the fundamental,
underlying patterns that affect over 50 percent of most data
modeling efforts. These patterns can be used to considerably reduce
modeling time and cost, to jump-start data modeling efforts, as
standards and guidelines to increase data model consistency and
quality, and as an objective source against which an enterprise can
evaluate data models.
