This addresses the issue raised at http://drupal.org/node/48790.

Currently, a user with 'maintain books' permission can edit book pages, but also arbitrarily add existing nodes to a book outline. This patch replaces 'maintain books' with three separate permissions, 'add nodes to book outlines', 'create new books', and 'edit book pages'. These are clearer (I think) and more fine-grained.

Perhaps you can also deal with http://drupal.org/node/11206 (Editing a top level book page inadvertently changes parent). might be helped by new permission?
