Boost currently consists of about 130 libraries. You have to decide in 
what you are interested. If you would like to know about template 
metaprogramming the key library is Boost.mpl and there is a book 
published about it called "C++ Template Metaprogramming" by David 
Abrahams and Aleksey Gurtovoy. Many, but not all, Boost libraries use 
the constructs of Boost.mpl to create templates which end-user can use.
