Management Information Systems [With CDROM]

I am new to the computer arena and I find the book layed out the material very well. It made for an interesting and easy read. The first chapter sums up the majority of the book and each chapter thereafter elaborates on each topic presented in the first chapter.

It took a while for the book to get to me but it was worth the wait. This book was in excellent condition for the price and I am happy I went with this product. Thanks so much for giving me a great product!

Purchased book new, recieved in timely manner with no problems in new condition properlly wrapped. .

Product was delivered on time and in the condition as described. Good deal.

I bought this book because it was required for a course I was taking and I have found most of the information it covered almost priceless. This is generalized entry level book so the usual explain-everything-in-too-much detail stuff was there (do I really need to know how a floppy disk works?) but at the same time the author did an excellent job of pointing out where the technology is probably going. The author contrasted distributed applications and web based application and how they complement each other or how web based applications can replace weaknesses that have always existed older technologies. He explained practical uses for internet/intranet/extranet based technology not only for e-commerce but for the day to day operations of any company. There are also very good real world cases listed throughout the whole book. He spent quit a bit of time dealing with the managment/procedural issues of IT which was really right on the mark. The only down side was that there was too much covered in not enough space or time (can anyone honestly do justice to ethical issues in 20 pages?). I would definitely recommend this book.
