A hearty second to both these books (though the Tuning Book is definitely
something to look at later).
DBA 101 is perfect for where you are now.

I've finally gotten my copy of Tuning 101 and am breaking the spine to have
it open on my desk.  I snatch the opportunity to read pages in between phone
calls and e-mails.  Once things calm down (ha!) I intend to implement a
thorough performance review of all our Oracle databases using that book.
I'm really looking forward to it (in fact, the prospect of being able to do
it is one of the few things keeping me here at the moment).

Peter,

May I add 'Oracle Tuning 101 by Gaja Vaidyanatha and Kirti Deshpande' to
your list when you progress upward (you will!) after DBA 101. The authors of
this book are on this list too. In short, it will set you along the correct
path right in the beginning as far as understanding and resolving
performance issues as it deals very well with myths and incorrect
information 

All the best!
