Ambler, Pramodkumar J. Sadalage&lt;BR&gt;Addison Wesley Signature Series&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you know who Scott Ambler is, then you definitely want to read this&amp;nbsp;latest book he wrote.&amp;nbsp; If you don't know&amp;nbsp;who Scott Ambler is, you still want to read this book since it's most likely that you are dealing with databases at your job.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I haven't read it yet but just from the title and the cover description, it sounds like Scott has taken his &lt;A href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0471202827/002-1812408-6659222"&gt;Agile Modeling&lt;/A&gt; techniques to next step.&amp;nbsp; After all, Agile Modeling is all about starting from what you know and naturally evolving the database design as new design and architecture emerges.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.xprogramming.com/xpmag/bookRefactoringDatabases.htm"&gt;Ron Jeffrey has a quick review of the book also&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=577909" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/youngjoo/archive/tags/Agile+Development/default.aspx">Agile Development</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/youngjoo/archive/tags/Data/default.aspx">Data</category><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/youngjoo/archive/tags/Books/default.aspx">Books</category></item></channel></rss>
