Description
This text addresses the range of issues that need to be considered when managing an information system. The authors' aim is to encourage a more critical evaluation of computer-based information systems, to foster an objective and balanced approach to the advantages and disadvantages, while at the same time highlighting the real benefits that can be achieved by the introduction of appropriate information systems within an organisation. The arguments, presented in both practical and theoretical terms, concern key issues that are of interest and value to all students, users, developers and practitioners of information systems.
