Introduction
When I first started using Oracle many years ago, it was possible to know the database and the tools available. With the rash of recent releases of different options for the database and the spate of new tools, only people who wear their underpants over their trousers will be able to know everything there is to know about the Oracle products. If you were an experienced Oracle developer three years ago and since then have been locked away—not able to see the new Oracle versions of the database and tools—there will be very little that you will recognize today. Along with changes in other computing technologies, the rate of change with Oracle is constantly increasing, which is all the more interesting for us who get turned on by the software. You'll get a running start with the pages that follow.

Oracle Unleashed is one of the most comprehensive books on Oracle and its tools available today. It's written by authors who have real-life experience using the Oracle tools (most of whom are members of the Oracle Business Alliance Program). We will show you what's important, the pitfalls, tips from real-life experiences, and code examples—The kind of information that can give you the cumulative experience of many years of expertise.
