Don't Buy 30 Jan 1998
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This book does not meet the needs of a warehousing Adminstrator. The author assumes that the warehousing administrator does not know warehouing and oracle fundamentals. Part I & Part III of the book info can be found in oracle manuals. Part II contains practical issues, but also can be found in performance tuning manuals

There are much better books on this subject than this one. 23 Aug 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book is not very useful. There are numerous spelling errors. The title is really misleading because there is not much meat to the subject of data warehousing. Instead, take a look at "Oracle8 Data Warehousing" by Gary Dodge ISBN 0-471-19952-4
