Marty Cagan's articles at Silicon Valley Product Group are free and cover the ideas behind his books Inspired and Empowered: the difference between feature teams and empowered product teams, why discovery has to be continuous, and what the PM is really accountable for. Many of the field's current norms trace back to this writing. Read a dozen of the most popular essays, and you'll understand the conversations happening in almost every modern product organization — and which ones you'd want to work in.
