You can try Postgres "zero install" with Postgres.app for OSX, otherwise docker. http://www.win-vector.com/blog/2016/02/databases-in-containe...

Thank you! But I meant book, a PostgreSQL book; but somehow I didn't type that :(

The PostgreSQL manual [1] is pretty good IMO. Have you looked at that?

[1] http://www.postgresql.org/docs/manuals

The PostresSQL manual & documentation are one of my favourite things about PostresSQL, especially when I was first starting out :).

Here are some books: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/books/

I can't vouch for the quality of most, but I know that Schönig's books usually are good.

It isn't PostgreSQL, but I like "SQL for smarties."
