An Introduction to Database Systems C.J. Date ISBN: 0201385902
A textbook explaining the relational model in great detail, and written by a well-known relational database commentator. New editions of this book are regularly released every two or three years, so the ISBN might be out of date; the ISBN is for the seventh edition, but you should check if there's a newer one. (On the other hand, old editions are still perfectly readable and useful, and likely can be found much more cheaply.)
