Just had a glance, great work!  But Chapter 12 Parser seems need some 
upates.  All sample code snippets are written in Boost.Spirit 1.x, while 
the version of Spirit in Boost 1.42.0 is already 2.1.  All the new 
things, such as Spirit.Qi and Spirit.Karma, are not mentioned.  IMHO, 
Spirit 2.x is much easy to use than Spirit 1.x :)
