Got my copy today. It´s a big book, good paper.
Obviously GM Jones put much work into it.

It will take a whole long summer to work through
this one and Bologan and the Anti-Experts from QC

Just to reveal something more than the TOC:
- 2...g6 3.Bc4
- 2...a6 3.b4
- 2...e6 3.d3 d5 4.Qe2
- 2...Sc6 3.Bb5 e6 4.Bxc6 bxc6 5.b3
- 2...Nc6 3.Bb5 Nf6 4.Bxc6 dxc6 5.d3
- 2...Nf6 3.e5 Nd5 4.g3


Later maybe more. [Edit: That´s enough. Go get the book!]

I'm curious to see how white can gain an advantage in the 2. Nf3 d6  3. Bb5+ variation.

Variations covered include the highly popular King’s Indian Attack and various Bb5 systems.

Just like Euwe did back in 1970.
  

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.

He does seem to have a particular dislike for the Sicilian Defence, this is his second book on the subject.

I have his Starting Out: The Grand Prix Attack book and enjoyed it very much!

How to Beat the Sicilian Defence: An Anti-Sicilian Repertoire for White
by Gawain Jones 
The Sicilian Defence is by far the most popular chess opening. If you play 1 e4 as White, on average you are likely to meet the Sicilian in virtually every other game! You need to be prepared to face the Sicilian at all times, and a ready-to-use repertoire against it is an indispensible weapon.

In this book, Gawain Jones confronts the challenge of meeting the Sicilian head on. He builds an Anti-Sicilian repertoire for White based on lines he has successfully employed at grandmaster level. These are sound, reliable options but they also contain more than a drop of poison. Variations covered include the highly popular King’s Indian Attack and various Bb5 systems.

◦A Grandmaster's repertoire against the Sicilian
◦Highlights key tactical and positional ideas for both sides
◦Ideal for improvers, and club and tournament players.
