Scrum: The Art of Doing Twice the Work in Half the Time by Jeff Sutherland, Crown Business, New York, 2014.
I am an absolute sucker for any book or article that tells me how to do more in less time. I’m a terrible timewaster/procrastinator/piddler. My mother used to say to me, “Debi, do you have to make such a project out of everything?” But here’s a book that sort of pushes the idea of making your life into a series of projects. It’s mainly directed to the business world, but, like the dinner book and the choosing college wisely book, there are wider implications to these ideas, and Sutherland acknowledges that fact. He includes a discussion of how Scrum would work for planning a wedding, but it would really work in any situation where you’re trying to get a specific task done or event carried out.
