Comments:
When a book claims to be the Bible of something you expect to find the answers to all your problems related to the subject in it. And, that is where, this book disappoints. It hasn't been named properly. Something like "los conceptos básicos de Access" would have been more appropriate. And, if that would have been the case, this is a pretty handy book telling you the basics in a very simple and easy way. And is recommended for newbies.
