Well... he suggests the ...Nfd7 approach against the fianchetto/Epishin (Sergey Kasparov style), so I may well assume it's not worth bying. White has a clear advantage in that variation, and it does not need a genius to analyse it properly.

I received the book yesterday and my first impression is that it is a very good and useful book for the average club-player like me.

I have almost all books about the Benko and wonder if this one is a good addition, or more suited for starters with the Benko.
