Indispensable 13 Oct 2004
By Chris A. Ostrowski - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
It didn't seem possible that Mr. Loney could surpass the excellence of his previous books, but I have found "10g: The Complete Reference" to be the most comprehensive and well-written Oracle book on the market today. Most of 10g's new features are complex and can be misapplied if not understood thoroughly. Mr. Loney provides DBAs and developers with clean, concise writing and relevant examples that allow developers and DBAs to exploit the new features of Oracle 10g quickly and appropriately. The beginning sections on Oracle fundamentals should be required reading for all Oracle professionals. His wealth of experience is evident throughout the book. Indispensable for anyone serious about developing or managing Oracle databases.
