Alot about everything

Customer Rating:

This book is brilliant for anyone doing a business or management course at university or someone who may want a broad insight into the working of information systems. This is really a great reference book for many subjects that you may cover and contains alot of useful information. Its not really a book you read right through but having used it as somewhat of a dictionary I can say it is the most useful book I own or have read in regards to the 'Information Systems' subject. Very much worth the cost and better and more comprehensive than any other IS book. Recommended by my university lecturers as a great text book for my BIS subject and now me as a great time saving mini library.

A very good Jack of all!

I'm about to finish an IT and Management BSc course. We (everyone on the course!) bought this book in 2002 - and yes, I know it says published in 2003! ;) - This has been the best book on our entire course: a) I've read the entire book (unusual for this kind of text), b) I've referenced this book the most, c) there's pretty much a bit of everything in it. It covers most IT management topics (strategy etc.) - and is very good if you need to waffle about something you have not got a specialist book on (that is, minor points such as 'Resistance to Change').

Very helpful book....

This book practically got me through the last year of my degree in Business Information Systems! The majority of topics to do with IT/IS are dealt with this book in good detail. Each chapter contains definitions of the key terms, case studies and activities and concludes with a list of further reading and relevant web links. The book is well written, nicely laid out and contains up-to-date information. A must for any IT/IS student!
