Reading Oracle books is my hobby! Well, I am glad I have books by the this group of authors. I truly believe that a real good book can only be written by authors who are on the field implementing, trouble-shooting, tuning etc cuz only that there are real experiences to back up what they say in their books. I collect a lot of Oracle books and it would be good to have more quality-assured books out there.
