I keep it around; it is quite interesting.  It is NOT
PostgreSQL-specific at all; Celko is fairly negative about the notion
of being DBMS-specific in general.

He is preparing a book on Sets and Trees, essentially expanding on
chapters 27 and 28, which should be quite interesting.  SQL doesn't
usually "play very well" with tree structures, so that certainly
warrants an expansion of the literature.
