Why do you need a book? I would think there is plenty out in la-la land.

Google is your friend. Don't bother with a book. There's too many resources on the web you can download.

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?

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

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[^]?

Talk about a light-saber! Wow!
Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell
You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

If we don't whip him into shape, his postings will get weaker. And who really wants sad-dull jokes?
