Superficial summary of Oracle 8

This book is a superficial overview of the Oracle 8.0.4 database. It is a disjointed overview of it's features. It just skips lightly from subject to subject in a seemingly ramdom order. The first 3 chapters are good, it goes quickly downhill after that. It's more appropriate for a management overview rather than for showing someone new to Oracle how to install and configure the product.
