		mastrsushi on Feb 15, 2019 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The Theory of Relational Databases (1983) Does anyone know if they offer this as a full pdf? I have no idea why they decided to split it. I'm sure it's not hard to merge back.

Why is the book in parts? It was scanned almost 20 years ago, when multi-megabyte files were still challenging for some tools to deal with. I'm guessing as a single file, it would be 50+ MB.

(Note that the book was written before PDF existed.)
