International Master Herman Grooten has over 35 years' experience as a professional chess trainer, with many pupils becoming world's leading players, such as GM Loek Van Wely, GM Benjamin Bok, GM Robin Swinkels etc. He wrote several books, all of hem received a world wide great acclaim. This is his third book, third volume of the 16 volumes that will be published over the next 4 years.

The book sets out to enable the reader to learn two variations of the Sicilian by placing maximum emphasis on understanding, but succeeds in accomplishing significantly more. Reading the book offers a chance to improve your ability to study opening variations and chess as a whole. And best of all, you will understand why this is so. Highly recommended.
