About this product
 
In response to Black's Sicilian Defence, whether it be the Najdorf, Scheveningen or Taimanov variations, White plays the bishop to e3 and pawn to f3, which not only supports the center e-pawn but more importantly prepares to launch a kingside pawn storm against Black's castled king, starting with g4-g5. However, Garry Kasparov, a champion of the Sicilian Defence, has shown that Black can postpone castling in favor of queenside expansion and regrouping the knight pair at b6 and d7, ready for a swift counter-punch when White castles long.

Not surprisingly, tactics and sharp play abound in this most modern of chess openings, where precise knowledge of variations is vital.
