Good books (or software) on Anti-Sicilian lines

Hello,

I've been thinking about switching to the Classical Sicilian because of Yermolinsky's book on the opening and Kramnik's games.
But, of couse, there are many, many, Anti-Sicilian lines to look out for.   Many.
I used to play the Najdorf, so I have some background in the area but I haven't played 1...c5 in a couple of years so I've probably missed quite a bit.

Anyway, I was wondering which books (or software) you would recommend for someone who would like to play 1...c5 again in serious games.  I was considering Rogozenko's book, but I was afraid it might either be dated or inferior.
Suggestions?

I understand there isn't a "quick fix" anywhere out there, but where would be a good place to start looking?
Basically, where have all you Sicilian players placed your faith?  (besides ChessPublishing of course....)

Thanks,
Nietzsche
