I prefer the Oracle manuals to most books about Oracle.
Most books are out of date by the time I see them. And many tasty little DBA scripts are on the internet. The books I do read are more system admin, software engineering, data modelling type books that can be applied to all systems and RDBMS.
Other RDBMS product manuals (Informix, Sybase, DB2, ..) are also very good to compare and contrast features and approaches to RDBMS. (Check out DB2 and Oracle sqlload utilities, HEH)
