This text must be a trend, misleading information or entirely incorrect information. Even in the most basic concepts, the authors misuse terms or create concepts used elsewhere in the IT industry. The authors relay their lack of understanding of basic concepts in computer science in this 2001 edition Updated supposedly.
example for those who are literate in IT are, the authors have used these statements as “virtual memory on computer systems more important. Do you have a computer with MS Windows 6 years? You have virtual memory.
If you should find, find another book by authors who know the terrain, not written business professors.

I like the book because it is so good, if the information is told. Much more is the excellent collection of case studies provided. This is the best part of the book. By themselves, they are worth buying the book.
Part I of this book is an examination of the technology base and provides the skills MIS for the rest of the text needed. To a practitioner in progress, it can be skipped without losing much.
The second part presents the application of IT. It covers all the bases, but would receive an update on recent developments include. In particular, e-commerce is too broad to be very useful in this new century.
Part III includes the acquisition process very well. Finally, Part IV
would be a good introduction to another book on strategic planning for IT.
overall a good textbook for a manager would be in a rapidly evolving field.

This is literally the worst book I’ve ever used in my entire academic career. This book is crammed packed with jargon (“”), abbreviations (for example, “ERP”, a term that the book did a poor job defining), and slashes. I mean by slashes, you know how to use consultants love to two synonymous words when one would suffice? For example: “I like to go / like jogging / running bank / market.”
MIS professor was an idiot, but it is understandable that choosing this book. IF you are a teacher who don ‘ is not a fool, do not your students suffer from this book. Thank you.

Are not you glad you bought the book? You also need a strong market is a success not only for Internet orders. Kinda one wonders, is it not?

Not at all! There is no way that this book is worth the (money)! As usual, puts the market for secondary school textbooks to blow drastically the price of textbooks. Some textbooks are useful, at least as a reference. . . not this one. Although it contains all the latest buzzwords, if this is what we prepare tomorrow’s leaders. . .
buy if you need for a class, but keep your proof of purchase and is preparing to buy time break!
