Anything with Tom Kyte's name on it.
I'd start with Expert one-on-one, first three chapters.
When done, read the Oracle Concepts manual (on tahiti.oracle.com).
When you have that finished, read Tom Kyte's Expert one-on-one,
first three chapters.
And again.
See if you can still remember everything from the concepts manual.
Then... start playing around.
Read Jonathan Lewis' (www.jlcomp.demon.co.uk) books.
Steve Adams (www.ixora.com.au) is a good palce to read, as is
Howard Rogers (www.dizwell.com).
And I have missed many other Oracle specialists,
to which I apologize.
