Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best handbook around!
This handbook is extremely helpful to the novice Discoverer User. I appreciated the ease in locating specific items that I needed help with. It is user friendly and very enlightening!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very well explained
I bought this book recently to understand some advanced features of 10G and also get more hold on admin tasks and setups.

I am not through with the entire book yet, but whatever i have red till now is really well written. All features - desktop and admin are well explained with examples and screen shots. Notes at the end of items provide special remarks which are very useful as well.

A very helpful book for beginners as well as advanced users.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very Useful!!!-
The book was so useful that we (LDEQ) had Michael visit us for a week. It was great having you here.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Loved it
This is THE book to get for Oracle Discoverer. What more can I say, it's well written, clear with good examples.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Complete, comprehensive coverage
Oracle Discoverer is a complex tool and much more than a single understanding of the functionality is required to use it effectively for business intelligence.

Armstrong-Smith has achieved this goal in a pragmatic book that not only shows the "how" but the "why", with simple illustrative examples from real-world systems.
