Customer Reviews

This is a good book for hands-one experience!

I think this is a good book for all of you to have a hands-on experience in oracle database. If you understand some concepts of oracle database, you will find it useful. Everyone doesn't use unix at home, but it provides how to use unix and windows NT in oracle database. I am expecting the author can rewrite the book and add the contents of oracle 9i to this book. It will be more helpful.

Great for Students new to Oracle

Not every book is meant for every reader. Many books about Oracle focus on teaching working professionals who use Oracle what they need to know. These readers then use the books later as reference material. If that is your goal in buying this book, look elsewhere.If, however, you are a student learning about Oracle for the first time, this book is GREAT because it doesn't assume anything about your knowledge. It is used at Columbia University for teaching Oracle and is well-designed as a manual for classroom Oracle instruction.

ORACLE INTERACTIVE WORKBOOK

This book is good for beginnners who want to understand Database administration. Though it is claimed that no prior knowledge is necessary ,I feel one should be familiar with RDBMS terminilogies.
