Overall a pretty good book with a lot of advice to try out and experiment with. There are however a couple practices that are not in line with the Scrum Guide (Sprint(s) Zero, Hardening Sprint(s), canceling planning, canceling the entire sprint just because the dev team is struggling, etc) and the author is not equally consistent in emphasizing that.
A perennial problem... Lack of good product ownership. Some good into and tips in this book but badly in need of an editor.
A deeper dive into how a PO should function. A good read for functional managers and leaders who need a complete perspective of this role.

Great book for Product Owners...short and to the point
Terrible editing work. Filled with "I"s, opinions and anecdotes.
Simply, one of the best I've read about the Product Owner role.
The best book to deeply understand everything about Product Ownernip in software development. Totally recommend it.
