It's up to date for about 7.2, which is really about the best that any
book offers at present. It has _very_ good sections describing file
layouts and how to read query plans.
I keep the O'Reilly book _more_ handy for the sake of the function
summaries that are a bit easier to get at, but otherwise, I prefer
Douglas' & Douglas' book.
