I obtained a list of Postscript books from a technical book distributor called:

	Quantum Books
	1 Kendell Square
	Building #400
	Cambridge, MA 02139
	(617) 494-5042


 I would like get some feedback on these books (e.g. as an introduction to 
Postscript, as a tutorial, text oriented, graphics oriented, etc) and maybe 
a ranking from 1-10 with 10 being the best.
