I read all of the book.There are some missing parts of the book.
1.There almost no object oriented example(actually only 1) example in the book
2.Creating reports using Oracle &asp.net &crystal report is missing.There is no parametric report example which using OracleDate datatype.Since using of this datatype is problematic.If you using the date in the format of 'dd/mm/yyyy' ,you will get error.There is no solution to this problem.

Oracle Database 10g Development with Visual Studio 2005 and the Oracle Data Provider for .NET is a book written by Jagadish Chatarji Pulakhandam and Sunitha Paruchuri although their name is relatively unknown, they have been working in the IT field for more than a decade. Their specific experience in Oracle has also been extensive and this book has shown their expertise on the field. Although unrelated, their management experience in web development has also led them to observe the general practice of web development from a distance and write generalizations about application development.

The book is divided into nine chapters, each of them discussing a specific topic developed in stages. The book starts out with simple concepts and slowly builds up by providing additional concepts for application development.
