I have not read it yet (like others here..:-) but i have skimmed parts of it and read the appendix that summarises the technique with a worked example. I like the idea. It seems like its a sort of manual cost based optimizing technique? good book though, i suspect very worth reading. kind regards Pete --=20 Pete Finnigan email:pete@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web site: http://www.petefinnigan.com - Oracle security audit = specialists Book:Oracle security step-by-step Guide - see http://store.sans.org for = details. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html ----------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com ---------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to: oracle-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx put 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. -- Archives are at //www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/ FAQ is at //www.freelists.org/help/fom-serve/cache/1.html -----------------------------------------------------------------
