This new, shorter version of the successful Principles of Information Systems captures the authors' widely acclaimed "fundamentals" approach in a more manageable, 9-chapter format. Each chapter has been specifically written to cover the same business and technical topics with a minimum of extraneous details, to bring the focus back to the overarching principles of using technology in business. Makes a great bundle with applications texts!

Ralph Stair received a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Purdue University, an M.B.A. from Tulane University, and a Ph.D. from the University of Oregon. He has taught at the University of Oregon, the University of Washington, the University of New Orleans, and Florida State University. He has taught several courses through Florida State University's Study Abroad Program in London. Throughout the years, Dr. Stair has focused his teaching and research on information systems. He has endowed the Ralph Stair Prize in Innovative Education at Florida State University. He also provided funding for the Stair-Harkrider scholarship and the Ralph Stair Prize in Academic Improvement at his high school in Wisconsin.
"The suite of end-of-chapter material, ranging from self-assessment test to a variety of practical exercises and case scenarios provides a solid learning path from theory to application. We currently use the text. When compared to other introductory IS textbooks that I have recently reviewed, the revised FOIS ranks at the top." - David Anyiwo, Bowie State
"The examples are very current and interesting. There are more than enough exercises, activities, and cases. The professor of the course has a substantial amount of activities to choose from. Including three cases for this chapter is remarkable; most IS texts don't have but one, maybe two, cases at the end." - Cynthia Barnes, Lamar University
"Students absolutely love the subjects of computer crime and privacy in particular, which are "exploding" at this time." - John Melrose, University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire
