you cant learn from that as an utter beginner. Its a reference book. Get the SQL and PL/SQL Workbooks from Prentice Hall.

go to otn.oracle.com go to downloads. Just download the database and the 'personal edition'.

These books provide you with a same schema(groups of tables) and lots of practice problems. Doesnt have much depth, but good for the utter novice.
