The dramatic growth of the internet and the World Wide Web is changing the way we live, work, and play. In Information Technology and the Networked Economy, Second Edition, you will explore how information systems are used in business, and, more importantly, how the role of information systems has grown as a result of the telecommunications revolution. Using his unique perspective, author Patrick McKeown links the foundations of information systems to the demands of e-commerce, connectivity, and Internet-based transaction processing-the "networked economy." Also included is full coverage of an e-commerce business, www.fareastfoods.com, which serves as the backdrop for a running case study.
