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.

There is a list of Boost books at http://www.boost.org/users/bibliography.html Cookbooks and HOWTOs about many Boost libraries are good for beginners. Usually, the newer the cookbook the more new libraries it covers. Books about specific libraries are usually best written by the authors of those libraries. -- Best regards, Antony Polukhin

Have a look at the excellent introductions by Boris Schäling at http://en.highscore.de/cpp/boost/frontpage.html This is also available as a book. Best Regards, Beet
