The boost Concept Check library docs are a good place to start with many 
links to the topic which isn't just a, well boost concept. :-)

The boost Range library docs are a good place for a description of Ranges.

In fact browsing the docs for all the boost libraries is a great way to 
learn about much of modern C++... all those things one doesn't even know 
they are missing.
