My expectations might have been set better if the title was something like "Special Edition Teach Yourself Relational Databases Using PostgreSQL in 24 Hours For Dummies".I think this book is extremely thin on useful relevant content, although not completely without value; nevertheless, the books "PostgreSQL Essential Reference" and "Begininning Databases with PostgreSQL" are available now, and in my opinion they are vastly more useful than this book.
NB: "Practical PostgreSQL" is not out yet as I write this review.
Product Description
