Usually I (as a customer) require few things in good book - some value
added over documentation.
It sometimes means exactly an explaination of complex things in clear way.
And certainly not description of "every" page of OEM - I do not read
them for example, what would be really interested are procedures to
diagnose SQL (using OEM), to set Data Guard working, etc - more in a way
of O'Reilly "... Cookbooks".
just my 3 cents, hope book will be good :-)
