You might want to give "PostgreSQL" by Korry Douglas (Sam's Publishing)
a spin, as it has information regarding the internals of postgresql,
database administration, and several chapters on different interfaces to
postgresql (inlcuding about 50 pages on perl and dbi).

Also, not sure how relevant it is, but oreilly has a number of
bio-informatics books, several of which deal specifically with perl.
