Agile Development in the Real World

Acknowledgments

I would like to thank all the people involved in this work. Dr. Martha Lindeman, a user interface expert and professional reviewer whose advice helped reshape and guide the book; Mary Lynn Monge, a PM and professional reviewer who kept me honest; Tim Armstrong, a practicing software developer agilist who helped keep me on track, challenged me with new agile ideas, and wrote the Emergent Design section in Chapter 10; and Dave Campbell, who added the humorous artwork found in Chapter 1. I also thank the kind folks at Apress, whose guidance and diligence kept the book readable: James DeWolfe, Melissa Maldonado, Douglas Pundick, Mary Behr, and Kim Burton. Of course, I thank my wife for supporting and tolerating the many long hours ...
