I"m not sure I'd recommend anything by Looney et al. Sorry... Loney.
If he gets paid per inaccuracy, he's a rich man by now.
Indeed, anything published by Oracle Press is deeply suspect. It's what happens when you take an Oracle 7 text and do incremental upgrades to enable one to parade it as the latest, greatest, 9i book.
Bloody awful, and if I were in to book burning, they would be the first on the pile.
Fortunately, I am more tolerant, so the garbos's have a good time of it round these parts.
