I really like the BGL book!

What strikes me the most is the accessibility - the introductions hit the right key immediately, so there's really no need to keep reference material at hand. The samples are equally good, and they're the right size to be easily transformed into solutions to related problems. The book currently rests on my bedside table, and only my favorites make it there...

The Boost Graph Library is powerful, and the BGL book is an excellent companion for graph-related studies or real-world graph problem solving.

Room for improvements:
* The index
* More proofreading :-)
* Even more samples (maybe not so elaborate in the text, could be on the CD)
* Some more graph theory

Finally: I like the book a lot, and even if you're not "a graph person", chances are that you will be after reading the BGL book.

I highly recommend it!
