What is PostgreSQL for developer best book

I know it's kind of lame question, but I need to learn how to improve my usage of this DBMS and I need a book (programmers do read books!). It's quite expensive and time-consuming to order form Amazon from my country so I'd like to take a best choice, I can.

So, what is the best PostgreSQL book for a developer?

PS For reference, I treat PostgreSQL as a DBMS not an application server, so I definitely do not need a whole book about its extensibility model.

+2  A: 

I don't know what's the best one, but the PostgreSQL official site does recommend some books. You can also check the manuals on the same site.

I agree with the manual. Postgresql has one of the best written manuals I have seen.
