Scrum: The Art of Doing Twice the Work in Half the Time by J. J. Sutherland, Jeff Sutherland

informative fast-paced

3.0

On the one hand, this was an easy read, with lots of anecdotes carrying you along. One the other hand, the ego of the writer was an enormous hinderance. How many times did we have to hear that he used to be a fighter pilot (apparently something to be proud of)? All his projects were a huge success, and every time that someone used Scrum it worked like a dream. Except of course we all know that in real life that isnt the case and there was clearly some serious cherry picking going on. The method certainly has advantages, but the hysteria of the book was rather over the top.
