The relationships between DataElement and ElementAttribute and between ElementAttribute and DataAttribute appear to be drawn the wrong way around.
Based on a comment in the subsequent paragraph: 'Gluing physical attributes and data elements together is done via an intermediate table: ElementAttribute' (Kindle Locations 4213-4214), I believe the relationship between Data Element and Data Attribute is intended to be many to many which would mean these relationship lines should be drawn the other way around. I notice also that DataAttribute has 2 columns named ColumnName.

The Diagram on Page 64 (Fig. 3.8) is too tiny to understand especially in the printed edition. There are a lot of moving pieces and good information, it would be good if this diagram can be enlarged or printed on landscape mode. Thanks!
