Batsford press has a paperback version at amazon by kasparov used. I'm not a big fan of Batsford but it is there.

The Keres Attack is why you don't see much on pure Schevenigen.  Most Shevenigen players use a Najdorf move order to avoid the Keres Attack.  The Emms book is pretty much pure Schevenigen although it uses a Najdorf move order.
