About this ebook
This lightweight and engaging book is suitable to quickly understand essence of Scrum which is the most preferred new way of working under Agile. Many marketplace books explain a muddied version of Scrum associating it with activities and artifacts that are not part of the Scrum framework. This book articulates the original Scrum as defined in its authentic source, “The Scrum Guide.”
