Very very impressive, well spent $30. I'm usally not one to comment on these things but I very highly recommend this book. It is styled off of the Gracie's other BJJ books so it is loaded with like 3-5 pictures every page from front to back and goes into great detail. It's broken up into sections and flows very good for a big book, you can find exactly what your looking for pretty quickly.
Thing that impressed me is how he incorporates his BJJ into MMA. Even though he is a Graice he includes stuff in here like setting up soccer kicks and defending against them and such. Even if you're pretty active and fought several times there's still stuff to pick up in this book. A lot of times I would come home from practice and if I had trouble with a certain postion or am looking for more options I'd open the book to a perticular section and look it over. He shows great set-ups to the moves, how to counter them, and what to flow them into, keeping in mind you are getting punched at and looking for openings yourself.
Summary of post: 10/10
