About this title: eXtreme Programming is an ideal many software shops would love to reach, but with the constant pressures to produce software quickly, they cannot actually implement it. The Agile software process allows a company to implement eXtreme Programming quickly and immediately-and to begin producing software incrementally in as little as 30 days!

"SCRUM is a process I had heard a lot about but I hadn't ever really learned about. I'm glad I did learn about it, how it works and how it came about.
The main idea is to enable development teams to focus on development without distractions or interruptions from management or anywhere else.
The most helpful part was the section on empirical process control and how such an approach is the only way to deal with creative development. The defined process approach can never work; despite what they may have taught in school.
Some of the writing in this book is quite lacking. There were many sentences and sometimes even entire paragraphs that flat out didn't make sense. Also other times it felt like a concept was just abruptly dropped halfway through the explanation."
"This book provides a great introduction to the Agile development process which is really Getting Things Done for business. It has changed the way I want to structure organizations around me and has amazing strategies. I highly recommend this book."
"This is the book that changed my whole attitude to software development. The ideas were similar to my own thinking, but it was pleasing to find all the ideas summed up and put into a working framework."
"A quick read, Agile Software Development with SCRUM provides a practical introduction to the methodology, emphasizing the value delivered by the ideology while explaining scrum process mechanics. This is the first book I give to folks I'm bringing into the process."
