Scrum And Xp From The Trenches
Scrum And Xp From The Trenches
by Henrik Kniberg
He doesn’t offer a lengthy description of what Scrum is; he refers us to some simple websites for that. Instead, Henrik jumps right in and immediately begins describing how his team manages and works with their product backlog. From there he moves through all of the other elements and practices of a well-run agile project. No theorizing. No references. No footnotes. None are needed. Henrik’s book isn’t a philosophical explanation of why Scrum works or why you might want to try this or that. It is a description of how one well-running agile team works.
This is why the book’s subtitle, “How We Do Scrum,†is so apt. It may not be the way you do Scrum, it’s how Henrik’s team does Scrum.
