 Did you read any of his other reviews?  He doesn't strike me as a happy
 person.   Someone musta moved his cheese.


His data base server crashed???

Come on now Bruce! We all get a bad review from time to time. Don't lose
any sleep.

Your next book will be perfect - "Dreamweaver Ultradev application
building with Postgresql"

I think charachter about Functions and Triggers too small.
Server-side functions are very impotant for check input information and
integrity of database.

I got the book when it was first made availiable, and its been a damn good
reference, though I do admit it doesn't go into using Large Objects well
enough. as for installation, the INSTALL file pretty much explains what
needs to be done. All in all its one of my most frequently used references.
