Re: Need advice on a good Oracle DBA book.

The new version of Corrigan and Gurry's book came out last fall and covers 7.3. The Advanced book came out at the same time...Both have excellent reviews from the DBA community! They, and several other great DBA books, are available at a discount from www.This.Is/keybooks
