The book assumes you can play the clarinet/bass clarinet very well.

It concentrates on the typical bassclarinet problems , that are nearly all related to airstream , embouchure and control of the airstream from your belly till the end of the horn.

First book that i encounter with so much emphasis on those topics .
And all the small details are true and deserve execise and more conscious attention.

Translation from french to english is , to say the least , disappointing and a shame for every publisher. Doesn't stop you from understanding nearly everything though.
For fingering techniques and studies you'll have to look somewhere else.

CHeck also the Henri bok book ( with cd containing all the techniques available )
