He mentions Marocy Bind as out of scope of the book and mentions that Qa5 forces white castle short. The hybrid Nxd4 + b5 variation is also mention and some small lines where given but the book is about english attack structures and plans covered by annotated illustraive model games. The book is not only about sacrifices, positionel themes are covered as well. Both attack and defencive thems are covered for both sides.

Does he cover the Acc Dragon?


"This book discusses means of play in the Sicilian with castling on opposite sides." It is not a book about theoretical variations, but attacking methods like sacrifices on d5 and e6 or pawn storms that are not typical to the Accelerated Dragon.

Well, since it is christmas I have not had time to read it so I can tell if it is good or not, merely scimmed the chapters nad so far I have only looked at Dragon chapters.

The books is divided into chapers depenent on blacks choosen pawn structure (Najdorf, Scheveningen, Dragon etc). After each chapers there is summary of key lines.

The book should be avaleble in any store, my copy comes from a swedish site.
