Negative Positive
Title: For general reader only
Review: I feel quiet disappointed reading this book. It's in general written for people who want to know what Oracle is all about and not as an introduction to Oracle 8 database.There are too many things to be covered in this small book. From NT to UNIX and all the way down to Personal Oracle making it difficult to concentrate as a begineer.The example doesn't provide a starting ground. I sometimes have the feeling that the authors has assumed the user has read some of the Oracle documentation already. Also, some of the topic are not in the latest version. For example, Oracle Form 4.5 (oracle 7) is more focus then the new Form 5.0 which comes with Oracle 8If you just want to know generally what Oracle is all about then this is for you.
Is the review positive or negative?
