Publisher's home page for the book (rather spare)
No errata page for this book, so I'll just put mine here.
Overall: the crude TeX typesetting and the clumsy placement of the figures makes this seem slightly low-budget. Also, one gets the impression that the author (or editor) didn't spend a lot of time learning TeX, so he had to get by without fancy typesetting tricks such as bulleted lists. The occasional use of both italics and boldface for emphasis also seems a little bit tacky to me, but maybe it's just a matter of taste.
But the content is good. This should be required reading for anyone working in software development, even if you're not into scrum proper.
Here's my typospotting -- mainly over-use of commas in weird places, particularly around page 120:
p31 "them up" repeated
p106 s/, you,/ you,
p120 s/Goldratt, figured/Goldratt figured
p120 s/perspective, are/perspective are
p120 s/Senge, from/Senge from
p121 s/meeting, and/meeting and
p122 table 6.1 cells in last row swapped (-:
(The pseudo-sed notation s/one/two means "replace 'one' with 'two'". I occasionally use other sed idioms too, but this parenthesis is too narrow to explain it all.)
Ironically, the publisher doesn't know how to write "scrum" properly (it's not an acronym, so writing it in all uppercase is wrong).
