	My bad. I missed Chapter 9! The lines with f3 usually arise from a Kan move order. As far as I know they are not that worrying.

So he doesn't go for the hedgehog without g3 (i.e. the sort with f3 and e4) -- I wonder if there's a general view that that is +=.

	If you expect 1. c4 c5 2. g3, play the move order 1. c4 b6. You may face problems if White is a versatile player and plays 2. d4 .

	Will be interested to see how this book deals with 1.c4 c5 2.g3, isn't it tough to play a hedgehog against this move order?
