it's not all that odd that they are named similarly. There is a limit to the number of combinations of words you can have that express the contents of a book. Heck, there is someone out there who self-published a book called Oracle DBA 101 -- at the exact same time our book came out. I KNOW we didn't take his name, we'd been using that for years as the title of a seminar we gave at ECO. And I know how long the email loop was to actually name our book. We started and ended with Oracle DBA 101... but managed to go through just about every possible title you could have for an introductory book before we got back there.
