Amazon Reviews

"This is the Agile book we've all been waiting for -- clearly written and simple to understand. After reading this book, I finally understand the principles of Agile methodology."
"This belongs in the hands of every businessman and woman. Thomas has written a book that's easy to understand (you won't find yourself reading and re-reading the same paragraph as you wonder, "WHAT did this say?") and yet filled with truly insightful, creative and practical information. It can literally change the way you do business. I'll never look at work the same. Highly recommended!"
"Generally, books like this one are so steeped in jargon that they're virtually unreadable, so how refreshing to discover one that combines useful information with readability! Should be a required text for every corporate employee, and available in college bookstores for business majors."
