These I have read and can vouch for, although there are some other books I must say are great and are not completely tuning related: O'Reilly PL/SQL Programming Practical Oracle 8i Learning Korn Shell And heard a lot of great things about Rachel's book forgive me if I get the name wrong, Oracle DBA 101 And finally, I must say BookPool.com is the best for getting books, I get things in 1 day even though I pay for 5 day ground (love 1 day ship zones). Plus their prices are 90% of the time 40% off and reasonable shipping (they use USPS as well). Although they only have technical books it seems (what other books are worth while? Besides maybe Lord of the Rings). "Do not criticize someone until you walked a mile in their shoes, that way when you criticize them, you are a mile a way and have their shoes." Christopher R.
