The book references TopBraid in the chapter on application development, and the upcoming expanded edition will describe other scenarios where TopBraid can help with application development. All of the book's examples will run in TopBraid (when blank lines are removed from the SPARQL queries), but as an O'Reilly book on a W3C standard, it provides more detail on using open source software--in this case, ARQ and Fuseki--for running the examples.
