Book description

Most information systems (IS) textbooks overwhelm business students with overly technical information they may not need in their careers. This textbook takes a new approach to the required IS course for business majors. For each topic covered, the text highlights key "Take-Aways" that alert students to material they will need to remember during their careers. Sections titled "Where You Fit In" and "Why This Chapter Matters" explain how the topics being covered will impact students once they are on the job. Review questions, discussion questions, and summaries are included in each chapter.
