Absolutely, actually it's a very good book IMO (and not just because I
proofread some of the chapters!).

Basically, it looks at a selection of core Boost libraries, and addresses
the following questions:

What is it?
What's it good for?
How does it make my code better and more robust?
When should I use this?
How do I use it?

So it's a bit like an extended tutorial, but it addresses the when and why
questions much better than I've seen anywhere else.

John.
