Yes, it's the same book.  Addison-Wesley picked the title(s), and it
changed somewhere along the way.  The one that actually got published
is "Thinking in PostScript".  Since most books end up on the shelf
and never read, I prefer "Thinking in PostScript"; it looks good on
your shelf :-)

A-W just sent me a copy of the cover of the book, which means that it's
in the final stages.  They said that I should get some books within a
week or so, and that they should be in bookstores by the end of October
or early November.

The cover is mostly white, with a blue stripe across the top, and a lot
of multiply-colored letters tumbling around on the cover (having little
or nothing to do with what the book's about, naturally :-).  It will be
interesting to see how successful people are at coming up with a color
to call it :-)
