Title: Read the Intro and decide for yourself
Review: All you need to do to evaluate how wonderful this book is is to read the introductory section entitled "Laws of Physics Apply to Software."A web search based on that phrase should find you the same elsewhere on the web; most if not all of the material in this book has assortedly been presented under such titles as a "Linux Database HOWTO" or "PostgreSQL HOWTO." (Originally it was called the "Database HOWTO"; people objected because there are other databases on Linux than just PostgreSQL, and the HOWTO is basically a "cheering session for PostgreSQL.)It is still mirrored, here and there; the Linux Documentation Project indicates that the PostgreSQL HOWTO has been "removed for review," which is rather suggestive of the quality of the material...
