4 out of 5 stars nice discussion of globalisation   September 10, 2005

The authors give an updated view of the basics about information systems (computers and networking, if you will). This field keeps changing so fast that new texts are continually needed.

The book ranges from descriptions of one computer to that of networks of computers. What you get from it will vary, depending on your needs. The discussion on globalisation is very topical. And throughout the book are questions that help raise awareness in the student about IS issues.
