Although this is a book about remote pair programming, it is also a book about guiding environments to emerge where people learn more effectively and work more harmoniously.Even if you tried to focus on its helpful advice about setting up better lighting in your office or which remote collaboration tools are "best" for your needs, you'll almost certainly also be thinking about how pair programming creates opportunities for learning both about code and about how to work with each other. This book is eminently practical because it makes specific suggestions about what to try and how to do it well, but without the sense of trying to show you the One True Way. Without pushing, it shows us that pair programming can help us improve our code, while also providing us opportunities to talk more openly about how to work better together.With this book, your group can focus on programming problems while subconsciously---maybe even accidentally---becoming a more-effective team, even when they can't be in the same place at the same time.

I see value in this book for most software teams, especially as many companies have embraced remote and/or distributed teams. The book does cover many aspects from recommendations and examples of pair programming techniques to practical guidance on setting up a pair programming practice.I appreciated the pace and tone of the book as it was at the right level for a book that was less about syntax or code, and more about how to work more efficiently in team environments. The book has a practical approach to determining when and when not to use pair programming.The last time I explored this concept was with Extreme Programming. This book extends upon the driver/navigator concept to identify scenarios that cover different qualities of the individuals. For example, when the pair includes different experience levels, familiarity with the product/project, or different roles like a developer and a tester.Thank you Adrian, very appropriate timing for the current company I am working with.

This book is written by a practitioner who really understands Extreme Programming practices and how Pair Programming can be applied remotely. Pair programming is still a controversial practice to many people and the author does a very good job in explaining its history, mechanics, and most importantly, the contexts where it can be useful and where it is not so advisable. The book also covers the dynamics of remote pair programming and a lot of concrete advice regarding the tooling to do it efficiently.This book is certainly the most complete book on pair programming I've seen so far, and above all, tailored to the new norm for most companies: remote work.

This book was helpful for me as it started with the benefits and value of pair programming for both the developers, but the organization as a whole. It continued onto techniques to use in pair programming and ways to conform to different team makeup.I appreciated all of the examples and specifics around setting up equipment and getting the environment ready to work, and also the best practices when working together in a remote setting. There are many wonderful examples the author provides to help understand how to apply these principles to everyday work settings.
