Excerpt from judges’ comments:

Overall, this publication does an outstanding job of detailing best practices, principles, and patterns for programmers who work in Agile organizations. The layout of the chapters and the progression of the topics are well executed. The survey invitation on the final page indicates that the publisher wants feedback.

For future editions of this publication, consider more polished diagrams and illustrations. While the artwork in this edition is accurate, it is not of the same caliber as the text and code samples. Consider a table of illustrations/figures for future editions.
