Hi,

Could anyone help me?
Yup, probably google, every single result from 
<http://www.google.com/search?q=nillable> is relevant. (I don't mean to 
be totally obnoxious saying this, you might find an explanation you 
prefer following the link)

Given the following example below, What does "nillable" mean?

it means they are allowing you to do:
<Book>
        <isbn xsi:nil="true"/>
        <year>2003</year>
        <title xsi:nil="true"/>
</Book>
to indicate that the title and isbn are null, rather than just empty 
strings.
