Christopher Jones and those fine folks at Oracle have released the latest version of their "Underground PHP and Oracle Manual".

The book is designed to bridge the gap between the many PHP and the many Oracle texts available. We re-worked a lot of content for this version, improving the layout and flow enormously. We also increased its size by one third, adding over fifty pages of new material.

New things in this new version include updates to the software installation steps, an updated SQL Developer section, and some new additions like a section on testing, a chapter on mapping functions and a chapter on mapping the Oracle functions.
