Does someone already know what Palliser will recommend against white's "unusual / anti-benoni" moves? 
Is there something about 2.Nf3 with and/or without 3.c4
I also presume that 1.c4 issues will not be approached or will it?


In his Batsford Modern Benoni book, he recommends 2...c5 3.d5 e6 4.Nc3 exd5, claiming equality.  It occurs to me that 3...b5 is more dynamic (there is something about it in a recent NIC Yearbook), but then Black has to be ready to play some lines of the Benko Gambit in case White plays 4.c4.  Also I'm not sure that Black quite equalizes after 4.Bg5.

I don't see anything really wrong with 2...e6.  Black then has to be ready to face the Torre and the London, but big deal.

Yusupov once said that “The problem with the Dutch Defence is that later in many positions the best move would be ...f5-f7” but he is surely wrong.

I do not trust the timeline given by Everyman...I am still waiting for the Trompowsky by the same author which was planned to be released this April (after delaying several times). Hope I see Tromp before this book.

The website you give says that this book will be 'A complete repertoire against 1.d4', so I assume that it will cover all of White's main tries. 

It will be interesting to see what Palliser recommends against the d4 Deviations. Cox's coverage of these lines from a few years ago was pretty thorough.
  

All our dreams come true if we have the courage to pursue them.

On the site of Everyman, this book is announced for september 2009.
http://www.everymanchess.com/chess/books/How_to_Play_against_1d4
As the recommended weapon for black will be the Czech Benoni, I'd like to know whether this book will also deal with the white's anti-benoni's possibilities (such as refusing to play d5, going for the Colle, the Tromp,...)
