Here are a few I like a lot: -Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment - W. Richard Stevens (not Oracle but such a great book) -Oracle SQL High Performance Tuning - Guy Harrison -Expert Oracle 9i Database Administration - Sam Alapati -Oracle PL/SQL Tips and Techniques - Joe Trezzo -Expert One On One Oracle - Tom Kyte -Relational Database Writings (all) - C.J. Date I am interested in other opinions/favorite books. I'm sure we've all wasted plenty of money on less useful books. I know this differs for each person, but seeing trends can be very helpful.
