Summary: A must have for Oracle DBAs!!!
Comment: Robert Freeman has done it again! Every time Oracle introduces a new major release of their database, it is full of tons of new features that DBAs will want to exploit. For the Oracle 9i database, Robert was right there with all of the new features expressed in a clear, consice manner. And with Oracle's new 10g version, Robert is once again on the heels of the software release with his New Features book. If you know Oracle and are excited about learning all the new features that 10g will bring to you, then this is a must have book. With his usual style of getting right to the point, you will be able to start using the 10g database to its fullest after you've read this book. Where the topic is too broad to cover in much detail, Robert leaves you with the energy and drive to learn more. This 10g New Features book is your one-stop-shop to learning more about all the new features that 10g brings to the table.

Summary: Excellent Roadmap to New Features
Comment: This book is an excellent overview of the Oracle 10g new features. I would recommend this to DBAs, programmers and the like who would like a concise, high-level overview of the numerous features available in 10g without getting so far into the details that it becomes burdensome to read (that's what manuals are for.) This book really delivers on its promise. Robert has done an excellent job in hitting the most important points for all the new features, showing us how to use them, and providing accurate, workable code and syntax. His style is lively, and keeps you interested, which is in direct contrast to Oracle documentation and many other books and articles, which are way too dry. This is a great book, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any experienced DBA that needs a succinct starting point on Oracle 10g

Summary: Required Reading for 10g
Comment: Once again, Robert has published a book that is concise and essential to the early adopters of 10g. After reading Oracle's documentation, searching online, I still came across some undocumented major 'gotchas' in a new 10g install. Within the first 5 minutes of reading the book, I came across the main one...automatic statistics gathering.
It is not an in-depth exploration of 10g and it does not replace the standard documentation. However, it provides a quick reference to find the new features and decide if you need to explore more in-depth. After years of "new" books that are 90% old material with 10% direct-from-the-documentation info, it is refreshing to have a single book that we can use to rapidly locate the new features that are/are not important.
Once again, Robert has written an excellent, concise guide to the new features of 10g.
