Ouch!
That's a little harsh isn't Ryan?
Especially for a public forum.
The first Oracle book I bought was by Mike Ault. It was fairly decent, and was certainly
better than just having the manuals. I no longer have it, as it was Oracle 7 specific.
The second book was Gurry and Corrigan's.
You can find very un-useful books from any publisher.
You can also find errors or misconceptions in nearly any Oracle book published.

Subject: Re: Books on rac |
beware the rampant press books. Most of them seem to be total garbage. All
in large print with little detail. I didnt think much of the Ault Internals
book from Rampant... its basically stuff you can copy and paste from
metalink.
Dont know about his RAC book. However, all the other non-Ault books from
Rampant are total trash.
There is another RAC book with some stuff on 10g by a guy who monitors this
listserv(Murali Vallath). I have a copy of it, but have not read it yet.
Anyone read either of those RAC books?
