Information Systems
by Richard T. Watson
Publisher: Global Text Project 2007
Number of pages: 308
Description:
This textbook will teach students how to exploit IS
in a technology-rich environment. It will emphasize why, no matter what their major, information and
communications technologies (ICT) are, and increasingly will be, a critical element in their personal success and the success of their organizations. In other words, they need to be introduced to concepts, principles, methods, and
procedures that will be valuable to them for years to come in thinking about existing organization systems,
proposing new systems, and working with IS professionals in implementing new systems.
