And remember the 40 "systems" you can master if you study this. I studied with Gary for 5 years. it works if you do.

Pick up The New Breed by Gary Chester. It is a legendary book and all the "systems" can be done swung. I would probably reccomend this after you have a good foundation into the basics and overall style of jazz drumming. The good thing about this book is that it isn't exclusivly jazz and you will find cool tidbits that will carry over to all styles that you play.

I'm really into independence and coordination (of which polyrhythms and polymeters often come into play) so my drumming canon is primarily composed of Gary Chester's New Breed and New Breed II.

Marco Minnemann's Extreme Interdependence is also a spectacular book. It's kind of like applying Stick Control to all of your limbs and pitting them against each other.
