Customer Review #1:
 If you want ideas that really work, read this book.
This book is written by people who have years of practice snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, turning dying software development projects into dramatic success stories in a matter of two or three months. Perhaps you need to start with a pending disaster to be free to take the wise advice in these pages, because the approach can be quite controversial. If you are burdened with traditional project control practices, find an important project that is in deep trouble and try Scrum. You have every probability of being a hero, and the way you think about software development will be changed forever. "Despite the method used, most everyone that delivers software to production eventually starts doing something very similar to Scrum." says Mike Beedle, and hes right. This book describes how real software is actually developed. The highlights of the book are chapter 2, where process control theory is applied to software development, and chapter 6, where new product development techniques are suggested as a new paradigm for software development. The book couples a thoughtful approach with a detailed methodology and many case studies.

SCRUM BABY
This is a great hands on book for developers and development managers alike. Good analogies and case studies. Great references as well for those of us into process control theory and complexity theory. Only 150 pages makes it very readable.
