Abstract: Generally the Brans-Dicke theory reduces to General Relativity in the limit $omegaightarrowinfty$ if the scalar field goes as $phipropto1/omega$. However, it is also known that there are examples with $phipropto1/sqrtomega$ that does not tend to GR. We discuss another case: a homogeneous and isotropic universe filled with stiff matter. The power of time dependence of these solutions do not depend on $omega$, and there is no General Relativity limit even though we have $phipropto1/omega$. A perturbative analysis of this exotic case is carried out.
