The Art of Product Management
Amazon
'The Art of Product Management: Lessons from a Silicon Valley Innovator" collects the most popular Product Bytes columns from 2002-2008. The book covers Start-ups; PM Organizations; Agile and SaaS; Customer Thinking; and Pricing.
Together, these topics cover many of the meta-issues about product management: how to “think” about PM rather than how to “do” individual PM tasks and projects.
