Great book on theory, although the concepts do have some heavy mathmatics. In general, I think this book was written as a guide to be supplemented with a college course. As such, reading it on it's own is a little challenging for the ill-informed.

A bit too theoretical, and does not do too good of a job explaining. Some examples are given without relating them to the previously introduced concept. Nice introduction to business intelligence.
