Pretty wide and easy read

This is a great reference for anyone looking to take their PostgreSQL skills to the next level. It is not a beginner's book; the author assumes a good deal of knowledge about SQL databases to start. It's an excellent companion to resources like Bruce Momjian's presentations on postgres internals.There are a few errors and typos which I've unfortunately come to expect from the editors at Packt. But overall the quality is excellent and the errors don't detract from the content. I would have liked to see more information on high-availability replication setups but, as the author mentions, that is a topic for an entire book.Overall, very happy with my purchase. Each chapter is filled with solid, conscise prose and practical examples to demonstrate the themes. It's now a permanent fixture on my desk.

Covered all concepts in depth with proper examples we can read once and then we can use as reference whenever required

Well done.

Quite a few typos and wrong outputs. By the end of the book narrative becomes completely unstructured and rushed. For example replication chapter completely fails to deliver information clearly.
