From the preface: "This is a book about new and revised ideas in that most popular of openings--the Sicilian Defense...The ideas in this book were introduced into world tournament practice in the decade 1986-95 and were unnoticed or are in their infancy. From thousands of options at disposal, here are 250...my choices were not random. My profound desire is to inspire players on all levels to do independent work, a vital necessity for opening preparation in out time... Ideas...appear to be considerable improvements or merely interesting, provocative, or even clearly bad. Don't stop there... Starting out, you don't know which one of the new continuations is good and which is bad. Keep an open mind!... Don't accept without reservation the assessments as a startting point for your own investigations and your own conclusions.... Try to be objective in your analysis. If you have a close, trustworthy chess friend, share these analyses with him or her. The criticism of second pair of eyes is necessary to avoid mistakes and disappointments.... Most of the games in this book are very entertaining. Improve your tactical skill by finding the right continuation in the positions shown in the diagrams."
