Books suggested?

Guys,

I'm planning to buy a few books since it's been months since my last purchase. I already have DBA Handbook (8i & 9i) from Oracle Press, as well as Tom Kythe's Oracle Expert and, obviously, the online documentation from Oracle.

Is there any new, fresh books, covering the following 9i topics?
- Enterprise Manager
- Materialized Views and Advanced Replication
- Application Server
- Performance issues
- RAC

I'd prefer books with a practical approach (like Tom Kythe's one), since all the theory can be found on OTN. Anyway, other suggestions are well accepted too. :)

Thanks in advance for any tip.

Have not heard of a Tom Kythe. Kyte, yes, Kythe, no.

Steven,

Thanks for your valuable comment. :rolleyes:

Well the best books are the documentations.
You will not find any (or good) book on AR or RAC.
For PT and iAS Oracle press is good.

I think oracle manuals are good in the above mentioned topics.
