Oracle Core: Essential Internals for Troubleshooting

Whilst shopping on Amazon this morning I noticed that Jonathan’s book is up for pre-order.
The price gurantee from Amazon is very reasonable, so I’ve pre-ordered.

Should be a good read and more importantly a good weapon in any DBAs problem analysis methodology (is “weapon” the best way to describe it? Wouldn’t that make Jonathan an arms dealer?).
Of course it doesn’t mean I can possibly absorb everything from the book, but most of the time I find that it’s not that you know how to do it, it’s that you know it can be done.
