What Readers Are Saying About The Agile Samurai

Jonathan Rasmusson has written a book for today that captures the

excitement and value of what agile software development meant to us

at the time of the Agile Manifesto. Look to the master, follow the mas-

ter, walk with the master, see through the master, become the master.

Ron Jeffries

Coauthor, the Agile Manifesto, www.XProgramming.com

I love books by practitioners who have their hands thoroughly dirty.

Jonathan has years of real-world experience with agile, and his book

is ﬁlled with valuable knowledge. If you’re new to agile or want to

improve your practice of it, you’d do well to learn from this book.

Joshua Kerievsky

Founder and CEO, Industrial Logic, Inc.

The Agile Samurai is the book I wish I’d read before I started my last

agile project. The chapters on agile project inception alone are worth

the price of admission.

Michael J. Sikorsky

CEO, Robots & Pencils, Inc.

Maybe a few stodgy, grumpy types will turn their noses up at the fun

tone. The truth is they don’t deserve a book this good.

Ian Dees

Software Engineer

The Agile Samurai is exactly the book you and your team need to

understand and deliver using the agile method. It makes the concepts

tactile for everyone from the highest level of leadership to the people

pushing forward on the front lines.

The Agile Samurai helps you steer an agile project from start to ﬁnish.

No agile toolkit would be complete without this book.

W e n d y Lindemann

Agile Program Manager

In this book, JR distills his many years of experience in delivering

agile projects, with his characteristic warmth, wisdom, and humor. It

should be on the reading list for any team looking to adopt agile soft-

ware delivery. The section on project inceptions alone is required read-

ing for anyone about to undertake a new project (or rescue one that’s

already in trouble!).

Dan North

Senior Developer, DRW

This book was written with the insight and clarity that can only come

from a person who has proved these techniques in the trenches. I

have read many books on agile software development; this is by far

the most engaging, easy to read, and just plain fun of them all. Get

ready to sharpen that sword!

JP Boodhoo

Founder, Develop with Passion

If you want a guide to agile projects backed by real-world success

stories and battle scars, read this book. JR brings us an easy and

humorous read that covers almost any question you may have on

agile and how to make it work. His content is sincere, simple yet com-

prehensive, realistic, and honest about common pitfalls teams will

likely encounter. A great read!
