if anyone has gotten the book, can you say if the 'anti' section (c3/b3/g3/KIA and whatnot) has been updated or just copy-pasted from previous Delchev/Semkov books?
As is, the book must be complemented for the Taimanov g3 part (e.g. with Pavlidis true Taimanov Bc5 Bf4 line) but it should be interesting for its Scheveningen part.

And now a larger pdf preview: 12 pages with preface, bibliography and a (detailed) index of variations.

I'll go ahead and throw out a wee question for later (or maybe for Semko now ...).  Assuming the book addresses the position after 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cd 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 e6 6. Be2 a6 7. 0-0 Be7 8. f4 0-0 9. Be3 Nc6 10. a4 Qc7 11. Kh1 Re8 12. Bf3, I wonder if it advocates a particular move there.

One thing I noticed in ECO-B2 (2021) is that 12...Rb8 was given as unclear or equal; I recall that in the past it was thought to be better for White via 13. g4.

Looks interesting

The Taimanov-Scheveningen Hybrid  
by Semko Semkov
~250 pages, Chess-Stars, June 2022

This book offers a full repertoire based on the Taimanov move order 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nc6! 5.Nc3 Qc7. It is especially effective against the English attack and early kingside pawn storms. However, the fianchetto 6.g3 and the Classical system with 6.Be3 a6 7.Be2 pose certain problems. I propose to meet them with the Sheveningen set-up ...d6. Thus we take the best of two different worlds. […]
