A strategic opening repertoire by Hansen and Donaldson advocates the Catalan . 10 Bf4 is their line v dc stuff and not the bd2 which Kramnik has been using. I still don't get why publishers haven't cottoned on to the fact that the Catalan would be a good seller. There simply isn't anything recent and there wasn't too much literature on this froma while back.

There is some speculation with just cause that Opening for White according to Kramnik 1.Nf3, Vol.5 revised edition will be a White repertoire for the Catalan  instead of the Queen's Gambit.

Of course, Chess Stars is so slow at releasing books, that I suspect that won't be until at least two years from now.

Agree with James on all counts. Seems our libraries are similar. Schiller obviously quite a hack now, but this book is very worthwhile. Maybe more committed in his early days (see also: Keene, Raymond).

Also, yes, R and C and Dunnington both necessary for you. 

Perhaps James can take over when Daniel Craig hands up his speedos. James - out of the library and get to the gym! Pronto!

Catalan vs slav: c4 c6 e4. 

There is a surprising scarcity of books. Raetsky and Chetverik have published one in German, a newer one in English which they say 'complements' the German one (if I remember right), and yet a newer one in Russian - I'm afraid I can't tell you whether any or all of these would be a good buy or not. I still like Dunnington's Winning with the Catalan, but that's 10 years old now. An even older book by Schiller (1983?) is surprisingly worthwhile, as the Catalan is full of non-forcing lines that go in and out of fashion, so games from the 1970s and earlier are still worth going through. Best of all: study as much Kramnik as possible, and complement this with (e.g.) Khalifman for a more gambit-style approach - while looking up Smyslov's older games will do much for your general understanding.
I think the Slav is the perfect anti-Catalan weapon! But 1 d4 d5 2 c4 c6 3 Nf3 Nf6 4 Qc2 intending g3 is tried by some Catalan players.
