Book Description

June 26, 2007
As more and more people move towards adoption of Agile practices, they are looking for guidance and advice on how to adopt Agile successfully. Unfortunately many of the questions they have such as: "Where do I start?", "What specific practices should I adopt?", "How can I adopt incrementally?" and "Where can I expect pitfalls?" are not adequately addressed. This book answers these questions by guiding the reader on crafting their own adoption strategy focused on their business values and environment. This strategy is then directly tied to patterns of agile practice adoption that describe how many teams have successfully (and unsuccessfully) adopted them. Business values are also a component of these patterns - so your adoption is always focused on addressing your particular environment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Applied Agile Oriented Book August 4, 2008
Format:Paperback
The book is really useful for an agile beginner who knows a little about the practices and wants to apply them to his/her project. The book does not explain the practices in details but it tell you when and how the practice is applicable on different scenarios. The book takes the pattern approach to help you choose agile adoption strategy. The word pattern seamed to me a bit complicated but the way the book describes it made it really easy. One other thing that I liked about this book is it explains the reasoning and the benefits of the agile methodology. It helps you understand how to be really agile and adopt to real life situation. It really explains the difference between agile and any other methodology. It shows how flexible it is, as it lets you pick and choose the practices that will make you achieve your business driven goals. This book shows how to pick and choose your practices and provide a way of measuring your success. It's a quick read too.
