UniForum (formerly /usr/group) has three current publications which
provide overviews of POSIX:

     1.  "Your Guide to POSIX" - an executive-level overview of the
             standard
     2.  "POSIX Explored: System Interface" - an overview for technical
             managers, etc.
     3.  a white paper called "Standards Update:  Shell and Utilities"
             a snapshot of the current status of P1003.2, which is
             currently in balloting

These publications were distributed to UniForum general members as part
of their membership benefits, but are available to non-members as well.
Call 408-986-8840 for ordering info.

Disclaimer:  I work for UniForum, was involved in the publishing of
these pamphlets, and continue to be involved in the association's
standards activities, but I still think the books are great.
(Hal Jespersen, chair of P1003.2 did most of the work.)
