The Sicilian Defence, Black's most dynamic king pawn opening, leads to exciting double-edged play on both sides of the board, and is the favourite defence of great champions such as Gary Kasparov and Bobby Fischer. Nobody is better qualified to write a general exposition on the Sicilian than Mark Taimanov, one of the outstanding players of the post-war period, whose imaginative and innovative ideas have done so much to enrich and popularise the opening.
Through a series of deeply annotated illustrative games covering lines such as the Rauzer Attack, the Boleslavsky Variation, the Paulsen-System and Taimanov's own patent, the Taimanov System, the reader is taken through the various counter-attacking ideas at Black's disposal, which can prove so lethal in the hands of the aggressive player.
