Agile Retrospectives: Making Good Teams Great
I think it's good to see that so many agile publications have made it onto the big list of software engineering books. Far more than any publications with "traditional" views (if there ever was such a thing).
So, if you were looking for some more interesting books on agile software development, you can stop looking for a while. These twenty are the crème de la crème!
