Layout of a database block

Hi,

I'm curious about the exact layout of an Oracle database block.

A block can contain contains rows, transaction entries, checksums, but what exactly is in a block? I hope an explanation of the contents of a database block will give me a better idea of the architecture of the Oracle server.

Any documents about this issue?

Thanks,
