--> Basically, there is no way to directly create an xi:include element 
(this is not allowed by the DocBook schema).

Instead, you must:

[1] Give an ID to your chapter element.

[2] Select the chapter element then press Ctrl+Shift-C 
(Edit|Reference|Copy as Reference) to copy its reference.

[3] Switch to the document containing the book.

[4] Inside the book, select an empty chapter and then press Ctrl-V 
(Edit|Paste) to replace the selection by the copied reference

OR

Select a chapter and press Ctrl-W (Edit|Paste After) to paste the copied 
reference after the selection.



--> I thought this was correctly explained in this lesson of the 
tutorial: "Creating a modular document"
