( i ) Is it true that lines 8 - 13 retrieves content of /ph:index/ph:title? If so what is the purpose of lines 15 - 17?

Does it mean that lines 8 - 23 all uses the same document as a result from this line? Likewise, where in this stylesheet that references the secondary source index.xml? ( iii ) Lines 25 - 39 appears to retrieve content of various nodes in the primary source (either geneva.xml orlondon.xml). Exactly which one of them is the primary source document? Or is it able to lookup both at the same time? ( iv ) Lines 25 - 39 all uses ( v ) Lastly, is URI in XSLT is equivalent to filename? e.g. document('geneva.xml')

With that stylesheet you have posted only index.xml makes sense as the primary input document. That document contains ph:entry elements with the name or rather prefix of other files to be loaded with the document function (e.g. with <ph:entry>geneva</ph:entry> and <xsl:apply-templates select="document(concat(.,'.xml'))"/> the file "geneva.xml" is loaded and processed).
