I have a couple of those books. But I keep going back to my Programming
Perl book (camel book). It has a nice and succinct (~10 pages)
explanation of regex. It's perlish, but close to many implementations
including Boost's.
Boost's docs have a nice reference for the re syntax, but it wont teach
you what they mean.

I will appreciate it if you recommend some books on such topic.
There are several books[1] and websites[2] regarding regular
expressions. Popular books:
- "Mastering Regular Expressions" (published by O'Reilly)
- "Regular Expression Cookbook" (published by O'Reilly)
- "Regular Expression Pocket Reference" (published by O'Reilly)
Note that dialects& functionalities of regular expression vary
from engine-to-engine, so the underlying ideas remain the same,
but the implementations may differ superficially.
