With an approach to projects that is quite different from the traditional waterfall methodology, Agile Project Management focuses on added value fast while staying on track to achieve a defined business goal. Completing projects in small chunks, piece by piece, allows project stakeholders to implement deliverables much faster than waiting for all phases of the project to be completed as well as allowing for modifications to project items based on changing needs.

Scrum QuickStart Guide...
Differing greatly from the traditional "waterfall" or "relay" approach to project management methodology, Scrum emphasizes the importance of a cross-functional team that pushes forward together to a collective goal - the project success. Implementing such tactics as "Daily Scrums" in which all members of the team are held accountable for their accomplishments, current tasks and potential obstacles, Scrum attempts to create a real "team" amongst all members where all individuals most move forward together, as occurs within a Scrum on the Rugby Field from which the term was adopted.

The holistic approach taken by Scrum not only embraces the importance of progressing as a team, it also raises several important question that highlight potential inefficiencies within an organization, specifically related to resource allocation, accountability and task management. Not to be overlooked, the approach taken even from the smallest projects within an organization can ultimately define the overall success.

Fairly good introduction to Agile Project Management and Scrum. The key word here is 'introduction'. It provides a high level overview and examples, which allow you to understand the approach and some of the trade-offs that companies go through with implementing it, but unfortunately it lacks templates, dashboards, etc. so it leaves a bit to the imagination.

The books provide a good introduction into the Agile Project Management method and the Scrum software development method, which evolved from Agile. They also list resources where you can get more information, including becoming certified as a Scrum Master or other roles. It's a good starting point if you're not familiar with the methods at all.

Not very good

Poorly written and edited, this is one of the worst books on agile and scrum I've read. It provides little practical implementation advice, and the case studies and high level theory are of little value.
