I just purchased the "ORACLE DBA Handbook" by Kevin Loney and published by Oracle Press and Osborne McGraw-Hill for $34.95, ISBN 0-07-881182-1.
The sales assistant that sold me the book at the local Borders Books said he had just put it on the shelf a few hours ago and it is a new book.
In my opinion this book will soon become an essential supplement to the standard Oracle Manuals in every DBA's library. It has in mine.
