It doesn't look like it does. And it's not out yet so there is no way to be sure but here is a pdf sample with a full table of contents.

Open Sicilian and Najdorf English Attack
Sort:
Yes, thanks. I downloaded that previously and reviewed it. It looks as if they only cover the Adams Attack (6.h3), but I don't want to speak for the authors. We'll see if any gurus can shed some light on this.

It looks like it's written from White's perspective and recommends 6.h3 instead of the English Attack.
"Throughout this book we will attempt to either transform White’s lead in development into a devastating kingside attack, or choose a more positional approach, playing for strategic pluses such as having extra space or a healthier pawn structure."
What is the English Attack I have always played the Adams Attack or 4.Qxd4
Yes, the book was written from White's perspective. Will be interesting to see the reviews.
The Nadorf, English Attack starts out like the Adams Attack, but diverges at move six. I don't know anything about it yet. I believe it is well respected.

The Najdorf english attack has nothing to do with the Adams 6.h6. The english attack remarked from the move order 6. Be3. In some cases to avoid 6...Ng4 players move first 6.f3 and then 7.Be3. I suggest for you to do not start with this variation. In order to understand how the Najdorf works in both colors you need to play first more forcing lines like the Sozin/Fischer attack 6,Bc4 with 8. f4 in order to push f5 or e5. Then try to learn 6.Bg5 variation and after that go for the english attack. It's a more logical method to understand imbalances in the Najdorf.
Thanks. Any books you recommend in particular?

Mastering the Najdorf by Julen Arizmendi and Javier Moreno/ Play the Najdorf Sicilian James Rizzitano.Don't expect to see all the patterns and sub variations for all the main lines, but it included enough theory and examples to help someone who wants to study and understand. No need to thank me, wish good start.
I was actually looking for books from White's perspectice. I don't play the Sicilian Defense. Somtimes I play 1.e4 and want to play the Open Sicilian White.

This is the best repertoire book you can find in present about white playing against the Sicilian and of course the open.
I had noted that one before. I took a closer look now. Looks amazing.

It's a nice book...recommended to anyone wants a repertoire against the open Sicilian. The problem as every book is that don't touch every line in details?! For example the Najdorf 6.h3 has so many sub variations and ideas that needed 250 pages to been covered. 6.Bc4 another 300 pages e.t.c
I believe books gives limited theory knowledge and touch the subject in a more general optical view. As you play the open Sicilian and testing by your own self,you will understand what I am talking about.
Yeah and tbh it's more important to know the ideas rather than the lines, though knowing the lines is important too.
Does anyone know if this book covers the Najdorf English Attack? I am completely new to the Open Sicilian and want to practice it as White.
