Description
Reviews / Votes
"It is about business, about realizing the value of information systems, and about governing our systems and people in a big data environment. Though designed as a text for a one-semester course on information systems (IS), it can serve as a resource for newly minted managers in business and government large-scale information technology (IT) sites as well. . The authors continually provide the reader with interesting and thoughtful corporate experiences relevant to the topic at hand." (Robert M. Lynch, Computing Reviews, June, 2015)
