Summary: Excellent and comprehensive read for DBAs and CIOs alike
Comment: Agreeing with other reviewers on the astounding attention to the details, the depth of coverage, and extremely useful examples, I would like to add another perspective: this book is also an excellent read for those IT Management types who wants to get familiar with the concepts but not get buried in the details. The book introduces the topics gradually, making it available for CIOs, Security Officers, IT Managers (who can stop reading before the detailed examples) and to Senior DBAs (who can but won't skip the introductory chapters because the text is so well written and so engaging). Excellent and comprehensive read for the entire spectrum of IT professionals! A must read for those in Healthcare or for any public corporation.

Summary: So Well Written!
Comment: I haven't finished reading my copy yet, but I had to chime in to concur with the previous reviews: this book is terribly well laid out. The writing is clear and descriptive, but almost as important, it's rather engaging. That helps when trying to dig to the bottom of these often daunting security concepts.
Another reviewer covered this, but I have to say that my favorite parts are also the chapter summaries. They do a great job of recapping the details that were covered. Having all that information covered in such depth is great, but I'd probably have forgotten each chapter's contents had there not been that nice, succinct conclusion at each one's end.

Summary: Simply Superb!
Comment: I bought this book to learn more about Virtual Private Database which I am implementing now - and it was a pleasant surprise see that not only that but all other areas are detailed as well. The chapter on VPD goes much beyond the Oracle common references and explains concepts like application contexts, in such clarity and relative to to real life examples that the chapter alone may be worth the price of the book.
Other things that make the book must read - the material on listener security, a simple firewall settings, fine grained auditing, and the 10g features. SQL Injection and Application User models described in the book were exactly what we were missing and we got it in this.
Hmmm..why the large fonts?!!
