Contested Development: Finding Pragmatism in Agile & DevOps

Our task is to deconstruct the what and why of Agile and DevOps. We’ll
tackle Agile and DevOps in nine sections, each followed by a Q&A. A few
words of warning for the reader:

What this book is not.

• A how-to guide far too complicated or vague for anyone to use (a.k.a. a
  “white paper”).
• “Research” designed to generate a self-serving answer versus inves
  tigate an issue.
• A sales pitch or its cousin, the case study.

What this book is.

• An exploration of how Agile and DevOps fit into 21st century
  innovation and business.
• A compendium of stories and dialogues on the nature of Agile and
  DevOps
• A place for the authors to vent their frustrations with tech culture
  and its absurd institutions.
