Isn't there also a general book about the Sicilian
by Kopec?


Yes there is. I think it is called Mastering the Sicilian or
something like that. I remember looking at it in the shop and not
liking it very much.


What do you dislike about it?


I didn't think it was a gteat (probably slightly above average, but I
wouldn't have purchased it myself) either. Here is the link to my
review discussing it:

Randy,

Thanks for posting the link to your comprehensive and excellent review. At
the risk of breezing past your reasonable points of criticism, this quote
from your review seems to be on target for the original poster: "In the
end, I think this book is best suited for a player who has an interest in
finding a variation of the Sicilian to take up, but is not sure which that
would be."

Nice job.

Thanks.

David
