I would like to extend my thanks to my family for accepting that I needed to work long hours on this book during family time. I would like to thank Meeta Rajani for giving me the opportunity to write this second edition of this book, which was a very enriching experience.

Deb Bhattacharya applies Agile and DevOps to make organizations more successful. Over 20 years, Deb has helped over 50 teams across 4 countries to be more Agile and to be more DevOps. Deb is passionate about that.

Deb's other passion is sports. When Deb was younger, he used to play professional table tennis. He won many tournaments, but most importantly, he coached tournament-winning table tennis teams. Deb still enjoys playing table tennis.

Deb uses all his experience from his hands-on software development background and his sports background to develop high-performing Agile and DevOps teams. The two passions nicely come together here.

I am thankful to Anand Athani, the delivery manager I reported to some 20 years ago when I was an engineering lead. I was writing the thesis paper for my master's and Anand suggested Rational Unified Process (RUP). That started my Agile journey. The learning and contributing are still going on.
