Customer ReviewsRating: 1 out of 5 Confused ramble though Oracle The best thing that can be said about this book is it's a confused ramble though Oracle. The book tries to cover Java, PL/SQL and XML, and fails to cover any depth in any of these subjects. Rating: 5 out of 5 From Stem to Stern Some other reviewers have stated that this book is uneven in quality. I agree with that assessment but argue that is unavoidable. I cannot think of any one person who possesses the knowledge to write intelligently about all of this material in the depth this book has.In a few areas it is dated (obviously 9i is out NOW, but wasn't when this book was published), but it is still overall extremely valuable. I have had my copy for about a year now and have read it almost completely once (you can't read a 1200 page tech book cover to cover) and have referred to it in a pinch more times than I can remember. In short, a must have for any serious Oracle developer. Rating: 3 out of 5 Good book but not for beginner Good book, but goes more detail into tools provided by Oracle. If you will be using only oracle tools, this is a good book.
