max (timestamptz, timestamptz) does not exist already. You need to
create a simple function in PLpgSQL something like

if a > b
return a;
else
return b;

Even an sql function will do the job here using case statement.

Really, there are no such function. Perhaps this can help you:

SELECT id, MAX(product_category.last_updated),
MAX(product_category_member.last_updated) from product_category,
product_category_member WHERE product_category_member.id =
product_category.id;

**untested**



Your fault is that there are no max(timestamp,timestamp) - funktion and
i think, you should read more about JOINs.
