This book deals with the management of information technology (IT) as it is being practiced in organizations today. Its emphasis is on the current material that information systems executives find important, and organizes it around a framework that provides guidance. In this sixth edition, the key themes are the Internet economy, the global marketplace, e-enablement, knowledge management and knowledge sharing. It continues to merge theory with practice through case examples of real companies' use of IT. For information technology managers and executives.
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.
