Обсуждение: recommended books???

I have done quite a bit of database programming with MS Sql Server, and also
with Informix and a visual basic front end.

I have decided that I need to join the wave of the future, and so I have
decided to change my development platform over to linux with mysql for my
ftp / apache login validations, and pgsql as the real beef / back end to my
product.

I have decided to use php as my front end (I want it all to be ssl based),
and after I get a handle on this I want to integrate these with xml.

Does anybody have any recommendations of postgresql administration /
reference manuals that would preferably have some php related stuff in it?

Here is what I consider the currently best book on PostgreSQL:

Jens Hartwig: PostgreSQL - Professionell und praxisnah.
Addison-Wesley 2001. ISBN 3827318602.

Written by an experienced Oracle developper who had delved into PostgreSQL,
it is an excellent book for readers with some minimal database experience.

As far as I know it is currently only available in German.
