Excellent book, Learning PostgreSQL a better title

This is an excellent book to begin learning about the most advanced open source database available, it covers the theory and history of PostgreSQL and includes instructions on installing the database server.

The authors clearly explain the topics covered in the book, I've given the book to several co-workers who were interested in the book and they also view it favorably.

I recommend this book to the person interested in learning more about PostgreSQL or the person who has never used a database server before.

This book does not get into the advanced features of PostgreSQL but all in all this is a quality reference and handbook, perhaps better named as Learning PostgreSQL.
