There are practical applications.

After spending a lot time wondering why our project always get off track. I finally found this book. I read the whole thing in a couple days and it was such an easy read!! I spent the next day outlining a project definition to present for discussion at our next meeting. So many light bulbs went off while reading this book of things we can do differently.

Made me understanding "AGILE"

I have learned the ins and outs of the design approach v the souple| approach. It is important to have familiarity with both because the waterfall strategy might be more of a safe route but more and more companies are looking for project managers who are able to utilize the agile approach.

Learn Agile methodology understanding here.

This was a great read. I was really interested in learning more about agile project management and boy did I ever. this book had a ton of information. the title says its a simplified beginners guide, and it really was simple, but it was really in depth as well. highly recommended!!!

This is a thoroughly researched book

This is a thoroughly researched book and it hits on all of the key concepts, but the writing is clunky at times and really only helpful to someone who has zero prior knowledge of Agile concepts. I guess it lives up to its "The Ultimate Guide" subtitle, but I guess I was hoping for something a little more instructional and less expository.

A good introduction to Agile

A good introduction to Agile. This is very high level but it clearly articulates where the methodology came from and what it hopes to achieve.

This book provided a clear understanding

This book is a good initiation into agile. There are some minor hiccups in this book but it is indeed a referencing itself. But otherwise informative.

A great starting-point for anyone,

I like how it gives a history and layout of the basics in the beginning of the book. It was a good basis of how to preform agile in the work place and has provided a building block for me at work. It is easy for a beginner to understand and gives a clear understanding of the key ideas and principles of Agile. If you like IT, use this in the workplace, or would like some fresh ideas in running IT at work, I would highly suggest this book for reading.

Helpful kickstart to Agile

Liked the concise but through introduction to this new project management methodology. Good reference for a quick revision in future.

Excellent resource! Great primer!

A great starting-point for anyone wanting to unravel the mystery of "Agile" in the workplace. It couldn't have been written better.
