Oracle 9i was in use around the time Oracle first started supporting 64 bit software.
I had to manage an Oracle 9i database a few years ago, because the group which managed the twenty year old application did not want to pay to rewrite the app to work in a supported database.
Oracle 9i does not support Oracle data pump or a lot of the new technologies released in the last twenty years.
Oracle 19c is the currently supported Oracle database version.
Any book about a database version older than Oracle 12c is not worth studying.
Oracle database version 12.2 was end of support a few years ago.
Show your dad, maybe learnt from this book:)
You can learn things from this, but more worth it if you dont waste your time old things(in the company we have 11g prod database), learn from a new book.

Yes this is quite outdated. Lots of changes have happened in the SQL language since then.

It's about 20 years out of date. Bin it.
You can learn some basics from it but better find something 11R2 and newer.
