Summary: Great place to start
Review: If play White against the Sicilian then this is a great book to get an introduction to Black's various defenses- there are seperate chapters for each system Black employs, such as Dragon, Kan, etc.
The system Davies suggests revolves around the White fianchetto of his king Bishop on to the g2 square against most of Black's replies. Illustrated by games from grandmasters such as Tal and Nunn, this book makes a great intro for White against the Sicilian. Other great Davies opening books are the new Grunfeld and Alekhine's books by Everyman publishers. I wrote this review because the Midwest reviewer below appears to be a totally bogus troll who is just trying to amass lots of votes to satisfy a troll's ego trip.
