As Christopher Browne pointes out, some of the information is outdated. My real criticism, though, would be that *far* too much of a book about PostgreSQL is an advertisment for the authors' company's application framework thing. This necessarily means fewer pages for what you're supposedly there for, PostgreSQL. > Can anyone suggest alternatives? I'm on a plane right at the momen , but the _PostgreSQL Developers Reference_ (I believe that's the title) from SAMS, by Geschwinde & someone else, is clear, comprehensive, and, on everything I've ever checked, correct. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.
