Hibernate @ManyToMany Unidirectional

The Many-to-Many relationship can be best described by example.

The example we’re going to use is that of the relationship between an Author and a Book.

Authors publish Books, and Books have Authors. Any one Author can publish many Books, and any one Book can be published by many Authors, so this is why it is a many to many relationship.

Other examples of the many to many relationship are Students to Courses and Employees to Projects.
