The second edition as PDF EBook is part of the IBPhoenix DVD (Developer 
Edition $100). But I can't find out from the website what that DVD 
contains in its current edition. It used to have Firebird itself and 
quite a lot of additional software and documentation.

Firebird embedded has no network access and multi-user capabilities at 
all if I read the documentation correctly 
(http://www.firebirdsql.org/manual/ufb-cs-embedded.html). But "A 
Firebird embedded server DLL can also be used as a network client" to a 
regular Firebird server (from the same page). On the other hand triggers 
and stored procedures should work exactly like the client/server 
versions (and the procedure language is pretty similar to PostgreSQL, so 
migration between these two isn't too difficult).

So this is a middle ground with other pros and cons than SQLite versus 
PostgreSQL.
