A high level overview of Information Systems topics for an audience of MBA students. Coming from an IS background myself, this text didn't offer me much, though it may have been good for my classmates coming from other backgrounds.

Textbook used for the capstone course of the Cal State Fullerton MS in IT program.

Not one of my favorite books, mainly because of the presentation style of the material. The book flows poorly, with tables and case studies visually interfering with the main concepts being presented. In addition, the font and line spacing is very tight. The end result is a book that might have had something to say but wasn't able to successfully communicate it.

I really like the direction this author takes. It is an interesting look at how we view I.T. theoretically and historically.
