Hi there,

You really need a book? There's some info on wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation_(database_systems)#, but I think also Oracle documentation should be very helpful: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10743/consist.htm It's conceptually quite simple (tho technically quite complex).

Hope that helps!
