Question for those who have gone before...

Is there a consensus on the best book to use to teach myself SQL tuning under the cost-based optimiser, particularly the use of hints.

I have lots of experience under the rule-based optimiser, so I need hard-core info on use of hints and other features, not the general principles of SQL.

I have found "Oracle SQL Tuning Pocket Reference by Mark Gurry" which looks like it will fit the bill. Does anyone have a better suggestion?

Thanks in advance.
