Start with Chris Date's book, An Introduction to Database Systems, ISBN 0-321-19784-4. It is still the standard.

Thanks!

Looks like there are quite a few classes at coursera.org that will be helpful. Although I've worked with MySQL and perl/DBI in the past, I've never studied database design.

I think IBM should cooperate providing some clases on RPG and CL.
Clases on algorithms, databases, cryptograpfy, etc. aply to the i
environment.
A class in Systematic program design is planned in two weeks from now.
Go to www.coursera.org

Enjoy
