www.it-ebooks.info Praise for The Art of Agile Development “Jim Shore and Shane Warden expertly explain the practices and benefits of Extreme Programming. They offer advice from their real-world experiences in leading teams. They answer questions about the practices and show contraindications—ways that a practice may be misapplied. They offer alternatives you can try if there are impediments to applying a practice, such as the lack of an on-site customer. “The explanations do not stop with just the practices. Discussion of people-related issues, such as strategies for creating trust and team cohesiveness, rounds out the book.” — Ken Pugh, author of the Jolt-Award-winning book, Prefactoring “I will leave a copy of this book with every team I visit.” — Brian Marick, Exampler Consulting endorsements Page i Thursday, October 11, 2007 10:37 PM www.it-ebooks.info endorsements Page ii Thursday, October 11, 2007 10:37 PM www.it-ebooks.info The Art of Agile Development www.it-ebooks.info Other resources from O’Reilly Related titles Beautiful Code Extreme Programming Pocket Guide Prefactoring Applied Software Project Management oreilly.com oreilly.com is more than a complete catalog of O’Reilly books.
