 USEFUL REFERENCE TOOL February 1, 2002
Todd Sinclaire (Westwood, NJ USA)
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
I am finding this book as an extremely useful reference tool for writing my senior thesis at Rutgers University (NJ) on the Internet and B2B transactions. I find it very easy to read and useful, and some of the case studies are very interesting and helpful. Some of the other buyers don't seem to think the book is worth its price but I STRONGLY DISAGREE WITH THEM. I believe the book is worth its price.

I like the book because it tells so well where the Information technology is coming from. A strong plus is the excellent collection of case studies provided. This is the best part of the book. By themselves, they are worth the purchase of the book.Part I of the book, is a review of the technology base and provides the MIS literacy required for the rest of the text. For a current practionner, it can be skipped over without missing much. Part II presents the application of IT. It covers all the bases but would benefits by an update to include the most recents developments. Particularly, the e-commerce section is too general to be very useful in this new century. Part III covers the acquisition process very well. Finally Part IV would be a good introduction to another book about strategic planning for IT. Overall a good textbook for a would be Manager in a fast moving field.

It has the bits you'd expect in an IT text. Nothing dramatic and nothing missing.
