[GENERAL] Looking for a good programming reference

So, I am a decent oracle SQL and PL/SQL programmer looking to expand into
PostgreSQL.  Can someone point me to a decent programming book on the
topic?  I have looked Amazon and Apress and not found much, so I am not
sure where to turn.  Or perhaps I am looking the wrong places.
