Agile/Scrum Books
• Scrum and XP From the Trenches, Ken Schwaber & Mike Beedle. Also
available as a downloadable PDF . This is the book I tell newcomers to Scrum,
“If you’re gonna read only one Scrum book, make it this one.” Experiential
rather than overiew-based.
• Essential Scrum by Kenny Rubin. A fantastic overview of scrum. Much more
detail/overview oriented than Scrum & XP from the trenches, with tons of
good information and lots of helpful graphics.
• The Scrum Field Guide by Mitch Lacey. Mitch took the idea from the book
"What to expect when you're expecting", and applied it to scrum. Each
chapter has great advice on what to expect when you move to scrum, the
concepts behind the right approach, and a case study.
• Agile Software Development with Scrum, Ken Schwaber & Mike Beedle. The
original Scrum book. Good, clear overview of the practices and principles of
Scrum. It is somewhat out-of-date now, as Scrum has progressed since the
book was written, but it is still a valuable read
• Succeeding with Agile , Mike Cohn . This book provides strategies for rolling
out agile across groups and organizations
• Agile Testing , Lisa Crispin and Janet Gregory . Fantastic book that covers
testing in an agile world
• User Stories Applied, Mike Cohn . This clear and simple book covers the
aspects of writing, estimating, prioritizing and committing to product
requirements. Essential reading for Product Owners.
• Agile Estimating and Planning, Mike Cohn . What are story points again? Why
do we use them and not estimated hours? This book will refresh you on these
topics and help you become good at estimation and release planning.
• Coaching Agile Teams , Lyssa Adkins . If you’re a scrum master, read this
book. Provides lots of tools and ways to think about being a great servant
leader and agile change agent for your team
• The Lean Startup, Eric Ries . If you are a product owner, read this book.
Provides a fantastic, scientific approach to the business side of agile – what
are our key assumptions about what customers want, what will cause them to
purchase, and how do we validate those assumptions, pivot if we are wrong,
etc.
• Management 3.0: Leading Agile Developers, Developing Agile Leaders, Jurgen
Appelo . What do managers do if they’re not doing command and control
management?
• Agile Retrospectives, Esther Derby and Diana Larsen
• Kanban and Scrum - Making the most of bot, Henrik Kniberg and Mattias
Skarin:h . In the style of Scrum and XP from the Trenches, this book is ultra-
practical and useful without becoming a “guide for dummies.” Available as a
print book and downloadable pdf.
• Extreme Programming Explained: Embrace Change, Kent Beck . One of the
first Agile books. Focuses mainly (but not solely) on the engineering
practices, and supplies good overall context for creating an Agile organization.
• Innovative Exploration, Menlo Innovations Team . A picture book about how
Menlo Innovations does XP (really, truly, fully). Great for showing people
what it should look like and how it should work when done well.
