Being an experienced Oracle developer and a budding DBA, I found this book is the best for both. It has Oracle Architecture, database design, backup-recovery, tuning which are explained in a simple language. I strongly recommend it for your library.

Kevin's books are always well written and easy to understand.If you don't have them in your library, then you are missing out onsome of the best information you'll ever get. The scripts are downloadable from http://www.osborne.com/oracle/source.htm

I just finished reading this book. Easy to read, easy to understand the concepts, AND downloadable scripts. An excellent tool for every body who works with ORACL

Oracle is new to me so I spend a-lot of time reading trying to learn the ways of the DBA. From this point of view, there is nothing better than a good book and nothing worse than a bad one. "Oracle DBA Handbook" is an outstanding reference. When used in conjunction with "Oracle A Beginners Guide" this set will step you through from start to finish with well-explained answers and examples. I am particularly impressed with the logical and well-organized format of these books. I can quickly find what I am looking for and be off to the next crises. This is a big plus when you are in crunch. This is the first book that I reach for and quite often the last!
