5.0 out of 5 stars Oracle PL/SQL, 20 Feb 2004
This review is from: Oracle PL/SQL Programming (Paperback)
Having been working on Sybase for a long time, we moved to Oracle. Initially I bought the Learning Oracle PL/SQL Programming which turned out to be seriusly lacking in contend and appeared to be more interested in promoting the web side of PLSQL. However, this book has answered every question and stumbling block I have had with re-introducing myself to PL/SQL. Good and numerous examples. Basically 900+ pages of Gems. If you know SQL, but want to learn PL/SQL, bypass the Learning Oracle PL/SQL book and dive into this on. Trust me, you won't regret it, nor will you pocket.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very comprehensive PL/SQL book, 31 Oct 2002
This was the first book on PL/SQL that I ever read and is still the best. The authors cover the entire breadth of PL/SQL functionality with enough detail to answer all but the hardest PL/SQL questions.

Now in its 3rd edition. Highly recommended

3.0 out of 5 stars Not recommended for beginners, 7 Jan 1998
By A Customer
1.this book doesn't even list triggers in the table of contents, which means that triggers were not included in that book at all!! 2.i dont know why, but the examples in the book were so different in every page and every chapter. it was really hard to know what the examples were all about. 3.table contents and actual contents do not match sometimes. the author mixes oracle8 features with oracle 7 features while explaining about oracle7 features, which only gave me confusions. 4.the only thing that attracted me was the tips that helped me pretty much.. In conclusion, if you are a beginner to pl/sql, please do not buy this book.
