The BRD is $29 and J/R is $39 from Gerry Davis. Those are pretty fairly priced considering their content. I have one book at work that is about Data Warehousing by Ralph Kimball which runs about $60. That sounds like a lot of money for a book until you realize that Ralpha Kimball is considered a leading expert in the field of Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing.

Let's not even talk about some of the text books I purchased while in college that I used for just a quarter. The BRD seems downright cheap in comparison.

I didn't know about the BRD, JR Manual, PBUC, etc until I started posting on the various forums. Once I bought and read some of them, I don't know how I umpired without them.
