I noticed in the PDF sample that Sveshnikov often refers to the readers as 'young players'. A bit surprising given that chess books are read by chess players of all ages, but other than that the material looks pretty good.
  

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

Sveshnikov book on the French Advance in spanish language is only one volume and with additional material. 
His c3 book will be another great book. I have nothing against super sized books, if they put there the strategy for both sides or typical middlegames and typical endings. The cherry on the cake will be an hardback edition.  Smiley
  

It has been said that chess players are good at two things, Chess and Excuses.  It has also been said that Chess is where all excuses fail! In order to win you must dare to fail!

Indeed.  The seminal Batsford effort, entitled, "Sicilian 2 c3".  Then about 15 years later Chandler "completed" his opening survey.

The first edition of Chandler's book (one of the first on the variation, to my knowledge) came out about 1981.

Hmmm...didn't Chandler (who, iirc, once beat Kasparov with this variation) publish a Batsford book...with the exact same title...back in the mid-1990's?  Perhaps New In Chess should borrow Batsford's old naming conventions when it commissioned Nunn to revise his Macmillan effort entitled, "The Complete Pirc", and dubbed the new book, "The Ultimate Pirc"?

In any event, it will be interesting to see what the "ultimate" authority on this variation has to reveal regarding the latest theoretical wrinkles.

Maybe this time he'll be able to demonstrate White's winning chances.

Hello everyone, 

While perusing the new chess books coming out on Amazon, I noticed that Sveshnikov's book on 2. c3, which exists in quite a few languages besides English, is coming out in the fall from New in Chess.
