I too am planning to get that book. So I can practice te basic of bjj. The gracie self defense book is not worth the cost. You can pick up any old jujutsu book with a large variety of techniques which are the same as the Gracie self defense book.

I've looked the book over many times, the techniques are no different that classical jujutsu. In the beggining of the book Royce talks about the difference of Gracie jujutsu and although they place emphasis on ground grappling, it is stil more for sport purposes. The real self defense are more classic techniques.

I was joking about getting that book, I thought it would be clear from the context. I have watched clips of the video series of Gracie self defense tapes, though.
