I have to point out, since the OP is unlikely to have been following this group previously, that some book publishers go out of business, so if there is a particularly good book, you should jump on it while you can. Kyte's book was from Wrox press, and is now from Apress. But you never know with technical publishing.

I think Daniel might be overstating the "senior understanding" case here. While there are some deep waters, I think parts aren't any more difficult than the Concepts manual, and more instructive.

Everything in the world is on Amazon.
