The English Attack - 2nd hand book like new

The Najdorf Sicilian is one of the key battlegrounds of modern chess. This opening line occurs in a high proportion of top-level games, and is popular amongst players of all levels. World Champions Fischer and Kasparov are the Najdorf`s most famous adherents - both made it their main defence, and scored a high proportion of wins with it, while very rarely losing.
The English Attack (Be3 and f3) became popular as a direct attacking method against the Najdorf in the 1980s, following its successful use by Nunn, Short and Chandler. Since then, it has become established as the most critical line of the Najdorf, with Anand and even Kasparov himself using it to devastating effect at the highest level. This book is the first to be devoted to this most topical of openings, and its comprehensive coverage will enable players of all standards to play either side of the English Attack with confidence. Sammalvuo also discusses the trendy 6 f3 move-order, and the English Attack set-up against a variety of other Sicilian lines.
Tapani Sammalvuo is a young international master from Finland, who has extensive experience on both sides of the English Attack. He was Finnish Champion in 1998, and has represented Finland in various Olympiads and other team competitions.
