I find louis benson's book complete drum method really good. I used it to refresh my rhythms for backing horn patterns in ensemble writing, it takes you through displacements etc really clearly just focuses on snare drum so easy to apply to any instrument.

Some great answers here. Thanks! In addition to those, I'm putting some time into the Rhythm group of lessons in Open Studio's Keezs To Jazz Piano, and practicing some of those ideas over the chord changes in the tunes I've got on deck at the moment. I think for me the rhythmic instability shows up when I don't have enough conscious bandwidth to keep the unconscious rhythm going. So one answer may be to practice more rhythmic exercises like those Geoffrey Keezer described to move them into the unconscious. And maybe also when focusing on melodic intent, practice slow enough that the unconscious can maintain the groove while consciously searching for the notes I'm hearing. Maybe the more the unconscious handles, the more space there is for conscious thought at higher tempos...only time (and practice) will tell!

Talking about rhythms: why for you north-americans is so hard to understand how Bossa Nova really works? You should discuss this because is a real theme.
