Unfortunately, too many mistakes June 23, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Unfortunately, the book contains an incredible amount of errors - both typing and meaningful: different paragraphs conflict with each other, questions conflict with material in chapters, etc ...
Previous "exam cram" books contained many mistakes, but definitely not as much as this one ...

Undoubtedly this book will be the de facto resource for Oracle DBA's wishing to upgrade their certification (myself included).
As with other books like this you cannot go in to it cold and must practise what is covered.
Unfortunately there are several nasty errors to trip up the unwary.
If you test things out you will find them.
e.g. Chapter 3 page 6 - the code at the bottom of the page WILL NOT work!
you actually need to issue a SELECT ... FROM DUAL.
This kind of thing SHOULD NOT happen!
Hopefully the errors will be fixed in the 2nd edition of this book.
