Worked for me!

I used this book to pass the Oracle DBO certification exam. I felt that it was a good book and overall I have little ill to say about it. The examples are well written and do a good job of reinforcing what you read in the chapter. You read a little then do an example, then read some more, then add to the example and so on. You don't need any Administrative experience to use this book just a decent understanding of database logic. The only criticism I could offer is that the editor should have used arrows when content is being continued on a new line for reasons of page space so that readers will know and understand (beginners can have trouble with this). It's a good book for learning Oracle as a whole from the ground up and for this reason it's worth the money. It's not an overnight crash course (if that is what you are looking for).

I passed both the dbo and internet dbo exam with this book.

This book was great. You need the software and this book in order to pass the test. I recommend reading the book a couple of time to really understand Oracle. Remember Oracle recommends you have 6 month hands on experience before taking the test.

HELPS you pass the DBO Exam

All other reviewers have complained about either being confused or unhappy with the content of this book. As in all other certification books that I have read, this book alone will not pass the test. However if you use this book as a guide for the testing material, which is what it is designed for , and use other materials (such as: DBA Handbook, Hands on experience, and Self-Test Software's exam simulations) you will pass the exam. I did. Book does have a few typos in it so I can't give it five stars but all in all it was what I needed to make sure I was prepared for the exam.

title does not match cover art or review

title is database administrator, cover art and review is for the database *operator* exam.
