Fred Heath’s book “The Professional Scrum Master (PSM I) Guide” presents a conceptional view of Scrum and provided information about legacy waterfall methodology. The chapters are written in a logical chronological order so that readers could understand the topics.This book can also be helpful for the preparation for the PSM certification exam. Section 3 covers all the related information as well as Mock assessment questions and answers.

Agile project methodology has benefited only if it is truly understood and followed with disciplines. A lot of projects on paper say they follow agile but they are not because not everyone on the team understands the mindset of Agile.This book in three sections covers everything you need to understand Agile. Bonus it prepares you for the PSM certification.Every chapter has some quiz. I personally like quizzes as it asserts if I have successfully understood the content covered in the chapter.Overall this is a great book if you are a beginner to Agile development methodolgoy.

Pros:This is a great book and it is well organised and easy to understand. The book is laid out nicely so that each subject is tested with mini-quizzes before some broader questions at the end. I found it really useful.Suggestions to improve and clear the exam-• 7-8 pages Scrum guide is Bible for the PSM-I exam. Though book had covered everything in detail but inbulid short notes are always preferred. So, it would be good if that original Scrum guide could also be attached at start or end (whichever been preferred) along with short font which page had covered that point. (People could get that Scrum guide that from Scrum.org main website but why to make that extra pain).• Though book had many questions but sample atleast 3-4 full length test papers(solved) are missing. Practicing questions is second key to pass the exam.• Proper Tools Usage missing- Following above two points are enough to pass the exam but this point will help for practical implementation. I see the tools mentioned like velocity chart, burndown and burnup charts under JIRA dashboard, but accurate guided steps missing. Could have added a short Section of 7-8 pages as Appendix for tools actually guiding how to build them.Lastly Practice Practice Practice the Scrum guide + full length test back and forth till get above 85% in each.
