The Object Database Standard : Odmg 2.0 (Morgan Kaufmann Series in Data Management Systems) by R. G. G. Cattell (Editor), Douglas K. Barry (Editor), Dirk Bartels (Editor)
Clearly written standards document (amazing!). Interesting to note how much OOFILE resembles their ideas for the "future" c++ binding - this is entirely parallel evolution of ideas (comfortingly).

Great overview of products and forces in the development of ODBMS technology to the current state (publication date is 1995). The book covers a lot of issues succintly.
