Title: Good examples, but not well written
Review: Save your money on this one. I liked the overview of the ORDBMS in Chapter 1, and the treatment of partitioning, but overall this collection of tips is just that-- a set of tips for the expert minus a well-written orientation to new features. If you can glean more information from examples rather than the surrounding text, then this might be a good reference, but don't count on it to teach you the neat stuff in Oracle 8i.
Is the review positive or negative?
