Summary: Expand your networking knowledge using Oracle as a base
Review: I found this book to be exactly what I needed when I was searching to expand my networking knowledge. I have been an Oracle DBA for nearly 7 years but felt that I needed to strengthen my knowledge and understanding of network architecture. I selected Marlene's Oracle 8i Networking book to help me strengthen my networking knowledge and am very pleased with the choice. I learned a deeper understanding of networks within an Oracle environment that I am very comfortable with. Marlene has a very easy to read writing style which would also make this book perfect for beginners.

Summary: A very silly book.
Review: If you are new to Oralce and want somewhere to start, you will find this book very usefull. I had to set up a new (small scale) Oracle DB (including Oracle Express and OSA)on an NT platform.I have spent the past 5 years in the IT industry so wanted a book that was technical enought to keep me interested but not too advanced that it goes over my head. With the help of this book I was able to set up my servers and get them all "talking" to each other. Well worth the money.....
