5.0 out of 5 stars Oracle DB 10g, September 26, 2007
This review is from: Hands-On Oracle Database 10g Express Edition for Windows (Oracle Press) (Paperback)
I started with the book and the CD due to the thought of getting a ground rules idea of what Oracle is about. I did notice several areas where SQL code was used but other than that it is a powerful tool. The "Express" edition really gives you an idea of how powerful this database is. Once you complete the Express edition, go to Oracles website and download the Personal Edition for free and get the whole kit and kaboodle!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book, June 7, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hands-On Oracle Database 10g Express Edition for Windows (Oracle Press) (Paperback)
The book was well written and very methodically built the topic. I would have liked to have an introductory overview section/chapter that illustrated how the topics come together, and an example of an end result.

1.0 out of 5 stars Kindle edition did not have CD, March 31, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
If you are thinking of purchasing the Kindle edition DO NOT! This did not come with the CD which you need in order to do the exercises. This is a great book however, it breaks down everything to you but just remember not to buy the kindle edition!
