-The first edition of this book told us what XP was-it changed the way many of us think about software development. This second edition takes it farther and gives us a lot more of the -why- of XP, the motivations and the principles behind the practices. This is great stuff. Armed with the -what- and the -why,- we can now all set out to confidently work on the -how-: how to run our projects better, and how to get agile techniques adopted in our organizations.-
