When aggressive means creating attacking chances against the white King then it's probably 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.g3 Bg7 4.Bg2 0-0 5.Nf3 d6 6.0-0 Nc6 7.Nc3 e5 8.d5 Ne7. This variation doesn't have a particularly good reputation, doesn't score very well plus White can avoid it with 7.d5.

So perhaps the best candidate for aggression is a transposition to some Benoni. 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.g3 c5 but White does not have to play 4.d5, as 4.Nf3 is good enough. The same is true if Black plays ...c5 later.

If Black is willing to play the Pirc/Modern another option is to postpone ...Nf6. 1.d4 g6 2.c4 Bg7 3.g3 (3.Nc3 d6 4.Nf3 Nc6) d6 4.Nc3/4.Nf3/4.Bg2 Nbd7 and 5...e5 heading for an early ...f5.
  
The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged.

Probably the variation most agressive and playable is the Gallagher Variation, although it's probably a bit more risky that the ...Nc6 and ...a6 try, which is also worth a look-see.
