This is how ORACLE books should be written.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The book is plentiful of carefully selected examples, which illustrate each topic in a very clear and real-life simulation. The complete sections of practical real-life examples found at the end of some chapters are very useful and can be modified and used in practical applications. It is really a great job. Buy this book. It is really a great job.
Excellent for beginners and experts alike...

I bought this book as a complete Oracle novice, transitioning from Microsoft T-SQL to PL/SQL. I was worried about the transition being difficult until I read this book.It is one of those very rare books that presents advanced concepts in a context understandable by users of all experience levels. The author often throws in tips about Oracle PL/SQL quirks to watch out for, as well as some very applicable information about how Oracle works internally.I've since become more comfortable with PL/SQL, and the book also serves as a great reference. I highly encourage you to read this book straight through.I recommend this well-written book to anybody wanting to learn PL/SQL, as well as anyone needing a great reference.
PL/SQL made easy with this book -- A must read!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Scott Urman has done a terrific job in explaining PL/SQL with such a clarity, making this subject easy to understand. What I really like is that he uses examples, not jargons, to illustrate PL/SQL concepts. This book is a must-have for everyone who either wants to master PL/SQL or simply want to clear up confusions after reading PL/SQl sections of Koch & Loney (Don't take me wrong, it was also a wonderful book.). This book worths every penny!
Great general knowledge PL/SQL book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This is a great book for either learning PL/SQL or as a reference. I went through a little better than half of the book word for word before I gave up. But I still use this book as a reference whenever I need to program in PL/SQL. I would suggest this book to anyone who either wants to learn PL/SQL or just needs to check something really quickly. If you use PL/SQL on a regular to semi-regular basis, then this is a must have.
One the Best Documents on Oracle 8 PL/SQL features
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
I found "Oracle8 Pl/Sql Programming" to be worth my time and money. Reading the "Oracle8 Pl/Sql Programming" book was like being in the Oracle Education course without paying $2000. Here's why - each chapter has short narrative descriptions of the topics followed by a lab you can do. I like the learn by experimentation approach. Beneficial topics were: Oracle Objects, Collections, DBMS_OUTPUT, TEXT_IO, cursors, and Dynamic cursors. I found "Oracle8 PL/SQL Programming" far superior to the Oracle documentation.
