It fails to clearly elaborate on the modeling of the declarative structure of business rules as ERD and associated table structure. The approach outlined and the examples do not reflect the all categories of business rules. Also it is not clear from the sample application that is provided for download how different category of rules are designed and assembled for transactional working. In fact the sample rules implementation in the book is more associated with (physical) application screen design rather than organizational process logic; also, such implementation could have been more easily done through triggers in an enterprise class DBMS like Oracle than desktop DBMS like Access which lacks such capability. ### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars Kindle version totally broken - useless *by R***F on Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2013* The Kindle version Does Not Work!!The big deal is a Sample Database and Code to download from the site http://www.bizrulesengine.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=publications&mode=sampappThe key to unlock the download is the Firs Word on Page xxxProblem: Kindle has no page numbersSo, this $63 book is useless as the Kindle download.Hard to believe I am the first person to have this problem.So, the Kindle version is totally broken - useless.If a publisher never actually tried the system, the total lack of Quality Assurance reflects badly on the publisher. ### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars Warning: Read before buying! *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2005* As a C++ developer recently tasked to design a "rules-engine" for a real-time application, I purchased this book with the hope of discovering an alternative to a "true" rule-engine (i.e., one that utilizes rule chaining and a pattern matching algorithm).Although this book does give a step-by-step description of how to implement a "rules-engine" using Microsoft Access and Visual Basic for Applications, there is absolutely no discussion of how a rules-engine could be implemented in any other development environment.The relevant material in the book could easily be presented in about 200 pages or less. Rules are not really addressed until chapter 15. Most of the early chapters deal with such topics that are tangential at best. Just one chapter discussing the differences between the type of rule-engine described in the book and an expert system type of rule-engine would have made the book useful. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/60065135-how-to-build-a-business-rules-engine-extending-application-functionality](https://www.desertcart.de/products/60065135-how-to-build-a-business-rules-engine-extending-application-functionality) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-04-30*
