So, I am a decent oracle SQL and PL/SQL programmer looking to expand into PostgreSQL.  Can someone point me to a decent programming book on the topic?  I have looked Amazon and Apress and not found much, so I am not sure where to turn.  Or perhaps I am looking the wrong places.

Your request is a bit generic. I'm not sure what you mean by "a decent programming book", as that can encompass several programming languages.
That being said, if you are specifically wanting to learn more about PostgreSQL, I would suggest you look into the following 3 books.

PostgreSQL 9 Administration Cookbook

PostgreSQL for DataArchitects

PostgreSQL Developer Guide
