Synopsis
A true understanding of information systems requires more than memorizing hundreds of technical buzzwords. The third edition of Professor Steven Alter's highly successful Information Systems goes beyond the buzzwords by using a practical, widely applicable approach for analyzing systems from a business professional's viewpoint. The work-centered analysis (WCA) method is integrated throughout the book, providing a unifying vision for the material. The text also comes to life through examples within the chapters, true-to-life cases that open and close the chapters, and a Web site (http://hepg.awl.com keyword: Alter)that provides additional cases.
