Oracle8 Design Tips (A Nutshell Handbook)

Rating:
Summary: superficial - not really informative
Review: The book touches new features at a very superficial level. You would not really comprehend much out of it. Don't even think about wasting your money on this. You will get more info on oracle web site for free !

Summary: Still useful...
Review: This book is really outdated now (Feb 2003) but it is a relatively quick read and provides useful insight in how to use (and not use) the Oracle 8 features from an independent point of view. The authors are definitively experts on Oracle design issues and I hope they bless the Oracle community with a 9i version of their text - that would be truly wonderful...

Summary: Excellent information but light on detail
Review: Unlike books from the Oracle Press, this book gives details about the caviats on all the new functionality within Oracle 8. This is key in saving development time that is usually spent figuring out why something isn't working the way you thought it should.
