(Best technical book, anyway…)
The Art of Agile Development by James Shore and Shane Warden.
Excellent content presented very clearly. This is the book to show a worried team or sceptical manager.
Hmmm…it’s actually a bit thick for your average PHB. Not too many pictures either, come to think of it :-)
One of my colleagues recently asked for the ‘Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance‘ for the Project and Program Management space.
This is it, IMHO.
In the words of one reviewer on Amazon:
Finally somebody put together a book with the sharpest insights that you find…
Another reviewer finished up with:
Buy the book, read it, use it to implement agile practices and return to it frequently.
