My first experience reading Rampant books was with Steve Karam and Robert Freeman's Easy Oracle Jumpstart, some time ago. It was a good start, but I wanted to roll up my sleeves and get down and dirty with Oracle. I bought this book to learn different approaches to solving problems in my own test/development environment. I felt that it really helped out during my learning process.

I had high hopes for this volume - but as I get to know this series of books better those hopes are fading across the board.

Who needs to understand the underlying mechanics of the system when you can just keep trying "solutions" until one works? If you like tinkering with production Oracle databases with no fear of consequences, by all means, have at it!

All,
I have several hundred Oracle books, and have worked with Oracle for sixteen years. This book is beyond words, it is accurate, and most of all it is concise. Finally someone understands that you do not need to write a book over 800 pages for people to read it.
The real world examples, problem identification and remediation techniques are the best I have ever seen. I will buy Burleson/RAMPANT from now on.

This is a practical book and gives examples on how to tune your database when you can't touch the code. I found it to be well written and easy to understand with illustration on how silver bullets can save the day. I discovered that my optimizer settings were wrong and a fast change made a huge difference in my system. This is a book where a single tip makes it worth double the price.
