Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Oracle replication book
I confess it is me (I now have removed the hair on my lip at the request of
my soon to be (in 6 days!) wife!). The story of how I became associated with
the book is somewhat involved. Let's just say that my contribution occured
over a very busy, crazy 2 weeks or so.
I'm not sure I'm ever going to get used to the title "...well known Oracle DBA".... ;-) Robert

Stephen,
I just happened to find this site that shows the picture of "their"
Robert Freeman. I am not sure if the book advertised in this site is the
same 'cause I don't see the horse (in the background ;-) I personally
don't know Robert, but look at the picture and judge by yourselves
whether the book refers to the well known Oracle DBA Robert Freeman or
not.

Subject: Oracle replication book
I noticed this book on Oracle replication.
Has anyone out there in radio land given the book a good enough look to
have
an opinion on it. The reason I ask is that I recently returned three
books
from Rampant that are the worst books I have ever seen. These were the
first books I have EVER returned. I didn't even sell back my college
textbooks (which now clutter up the place). These Rampant books were
inexcusably, God-awful bad, and I swore that I would own no Rampant
books
again. But this title has the name Robert Freeman (but not Robert G.
Freeman) stuck on it, so I have to wonder if the Robert Freeman on this
book
is same Robert Freeman we all know and love, and not just some guy with
a
convenient name who hangs out at the local Salvation Army when he's not
camped out under a bridge, and if that is enough to cancel out the
apparent
innate badness of Rampant.
I also noticed the following book. I didn't know Robert's interests
were so
diverse. A book on restoring and recovering a database is fine, but
what we
REALLY need is a book on restoring and recovering this group.
