According to the publisher Swapnil has played the Petroff a few times although it is not the backbone of his repertoire. They do go onto say that they still think his analysis of it is first rate.

They have given no hint as to whether he will recommend 6...Bd6  (as per the Caruana repertoire) or the more usual 6...Nc6 against the old main line.

Regardless it is a long overdue book (IMHO) and one I'm looking forward too.

Wow nice. People in older topics say there aren't many Petroff books because ' nothing happens' theory wise in this opening. Now we had quite a few releases!

I wonder how it will be different from the ' Fight 1.e4 like Caruana' repertoire. 

Seems like he doesn't play the Petroff himself, a bit of a downer. I know this is true for a lot of books. But with the Kotronias book on the Tarrasch for example you can really notice that the writer is an expert in the opening.

Quality Chess has just announced several forthcoming books, among them is

Playing the Petroff - A Bulletproof Repertoire by GM Swapnil Dhopade
expected release summer 2020
„This Book also provides plenty of guidance on how to deal with 1.e4 e5 games
where White avoids 2.Nf3, with particular focus on Anti-Petroff lines such as 2.Bc4“
http://www.qualitychess.co.uk/products/1/371/playing_the_petroff_by_swapnil_dhop...

Also very interesting for Petroff players is another announcement by Quality
concerning a white repertoire in the Italian Game, with the first of two volumes
dealing with the 5.Nc3 in the Petroff AND with 2.Lc4. But that may be another thread.
