Knowing the dragondorf from an experience of about 100 games (certainly as yet no patch on Bragesjo's 1500 from the Dragon as a whole) I would say that he should look after 9. Bc4 b5 10. Bb3 not just at ...Bb7 which indeed seems dubious, but also ...Nc5, or ...h6 both of which I have played OTB (and for every OTB, 5 times on playchess.com.)

Generally speaking about this book, many suggestions are interesting and many lines are in lines that I consider to be critical or whites best option, especially in Dragon.

Some major remarks are that in Svechnikov he prefereces that tactical Bxf6 instead of positional Nd5 lines (that I prefere). I also think that hes recommendation agianst Kalaschnikov looks interesting (Nc3 and diverting from Experts vs Sicilian)  but since I got a new computer and has not have the time to install any engine I have not analysed all lines yet. I also think that the Najdorf section looks interesting and has some good verbal explanations. But since I dont play Najdorf as black and currently plays g3 system as white I do not now if all recommendations are in most critical lines. In Classical sicilian he appears to recomend the critical lines.

I currently rate this book as at least slightly better than Experts vs the Sicilian even thought I don not follow hes recomendation in every positon.

When you look closely at the material presented in this very interesting and useful book, one of the striking things that emerges is the richness of Black's play and the relative ease with which he develops chances, even in the supposedly less desirable forms of the Sicilian.  I suppose that de la Villa has done a good job finding good lines for White, but I think that the book is less of a discouragement to Black's adopting this defense than the opposite.

I read several chapters thinking, "Well if this is the best White can do, maybe I should take up this system."

The book is covering Nf3 lines vs every single main line Sicilian and was originally released in Spanish few years ago.

The english translation is an updated version of the original spanish edition, and was translated by a nice friend of me, IM Patricia Llaneza.

Here are some sample from common lines. Note that I can not give all lines or all sub variations or the enitire book. The book has several recent reference games.

Also, this book gives a comple repertoaur for white agianst the enitre Sicilian defence based on 2 Nf3.

In case somehere has not noticed a new book called Dismantling the Sicilian by jesus de la Villa has been realesed.
He recommends Bc4 yugoslav agianst Bc4 yugoslav like agianst Dragon and accelerted Dragon.

In some cases he diverts from Khalifman lines like Nd5 instead of g4 in Re8 profilatic system and has a novelty for white in a6 line. However this book apears bo be little outdated even now when it is new since Burnett variation is not mentioned (only Rc8 is discussed). The Karjakin-Shirov  line in Topalov system is not mentioend since the book was a print when that novelty was played.  When I get some more time I will make some posts to show more concrete lines.
