Sciore's pedagogical DBMS book (Springer, 2nd ed. 2020). Walks the reader through SimpleDB, a small Java teaching engine that grows over the chapters into a working relational database with disk pages, buffer pool, lock manager, parser, planner, and JDBC layer. Build-it-as-you-read-it style closer to building-syntaqlite-ai than to a reference text. Read by the eatonphil-bookclub in 2024: cohort page.
