Reader ReviewsIt is thin but useful. If you can believe the first bullet on the cover "Requires no prior DBMS experience", and you feel confident that you can install, configure, and administer Oracle by using this guide only, then you're a fool. If your Oracle resides on UNIX, and you're the DBA, yes, add this to your book shelf if you're not UNIX savvy. Otherwise, expect to get half of what you pay for and only use half of what you get.
