Hello there!
Are there any good and recommendable books about PL/PGSQL programming?
Covering new features of PostgreSQL 8.x is no must but would be nice to
have.
Best regards,

Good Books
There's actually a list of recommended books up on techdocs:
http://techdocs.postgresql.org/#books
It could use a little updating, but is still pretty good.

If you are looking for a database theory book, I highly recommend "An
Introduction to Database Systems" by C.J. Date. It's very theoretical,
but it's precisely worded and very interesting.

Hi Bruno
There are a lot of the topics that I feel could have better (or more
comprehensive examples). In particular I am thinking of plpgsql. One
example is information about working with Exceptions (postgresql specific)
and another is the small amount of info about the RAISE Statement.

It's about 1200 pages, which is thicker than any other book you will
find.
Certainly, some books cover specific topics in more depth or different
style, but you need to decide which topics

Hi
I am new to PostgreSQL and find that the standard documentation is very
thin. I would like to buy a more comprehensive book. All the available
books seem very out of date!!! Firstly, does it matter if I buy a book
that was published in Feb 2003? Will such a book be hopelessly out of
date?
