New User: Looking for good administrative books

Our company recently got a copy of Oracle 7.0.12 and over the past week, we've finally gotten the blasted thing installed on our Sun Sparc10. I've been "appointed" the "official" DBA, but don't really have a clue as to what's going on, administrative-wise on this thing. I am comfortable with weeding through the SQL manuals, but they don't give a good tutorial on how to setup and run an Oracle database effectively.
Are there some good books you folks can recommend? I'm a programmer by trade, so I *can* read techy stuff. I need something to give me the big-picture so I know what details to look for and use. I haven't found the Oracle manuals to be terribly great on giving a clear picture of "The way things work in Oracle."
Thanks for anything you can recommend (aside from us going with another DBMS...we've spent far too much already on this project)
-Jeff. :)
