    Can anyone recommend a good entry level scrum book?

    If it's not broken, fix it until it is

      IMHO, this is a nice concise read:  What Is Scrum?[^] and this is a great 10 minute video: Intro to Scrum in Under 10 Minutes[^]. /ravi

        No because there isn't one. :)

            This is a classic, and I think it shows the influence of ancient Asian philosophy on scrum in ways that other books often neglect to mention: [^].

              My favorite Scrum book, which I honestly read twice which is written by one of the creators of Agile Scrum is: Scrum: The Art of Doing Twice The Work In Half The Time[^] It tells the story of Scrum and will convince you and help you convince others that scrum is a great idea if you follow the heart of the scrum story. There are details about how to run scrum too. It's a really readable book. Check it out.

                So, only receiving one quarter the pay? :mad:

                The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

                  I always negotiate a completion bonus for completing early. It's always more money for less time. :laugh:

                    Shouldn't that be "The Art of Doing Half the Work in Twice the Time" ? Scrum/Agile/Whatever is like any other flavour-of-the-month ... any team that does it well would have done it well anyway, whatever the methodology. My personal favourite has always been JFDI ... or is that Agile[^]? ;P

                      Really nice primer on Scrum[^], one of whose authors was my Scrum trainer. Free book.
