I read my first Codd and Date book in 1988, a year after I got out of school as an EE. There wasn't a lot of hardware work going on at the time so I was a bit adrift. Then a guy at work gave me the book and asked me to help him with his dBase III project. My career and life where altered at that moment.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.
