This volume provides an overview of information systems development and management practice. Part 1 of the book sets out a basic description of the tasks required to take an information systems project from its conception through its construction and into operation. Part 2 examines the theoretical foundations that exist for the study of information systems, describes models used to view and organize the information systems development process, and considers critically alternative approaches and methodologies used in professional practice. Part 3 moves on to consider the problems of managing and resourcing information systems activities, and examines the question of how organizations seek to achieve success with information systems. Each chapter has exercises and questions for discussion.
