Easy Guide to the Sicilian Scheveningen by Steffen Pedersen

Cadogan Chess 1998, 128 D8 pages $39.95 The Sicilian Scheveningen is an uncompromising yet flexible system for Black that has been a favourite of many top players, including World Champions Spassky and Kasparov. Black sets up a 'small centre' and develops quickly - unlike many Sicilian variations, Black's king is robustly defended. This book discusses all variations resulting from the authentic Scheveningen move-order, with Black taking on the sharp Keres Attack head-on. International Master Steffen Pedersen is a young player from Denmark who first attained notoriety by scoring a grandmaster norm when he was 16. He has earned a reputation as a fine writer, whose work on the Dutch Defence has been especially praised.
