From the Publisher
Five new episodes (case studies) related to Amazon.com will be added which detail relevant issues for starting a Web-based business and provide examples of real-word sites, e-commerce issues and more, to explore for further discussion.
Practical Orientation that offers up-to-date, increased coverage of the WWW and Internet, upgrading and compatibility situations, ethics/security issues, and computer buying tips.
Chapter Summaries follow the traditional, popular model of the 'What It Is, What It Does, Why It's Important' format. This format has been a key-selling feature of the book because in addition to highlighting and summarizing the important concepts from the chapter'it offers a quick 'and here's why it matters'' explanation for students. This explanation often puts the term into context and offers additional insight and a perspective for the student to remember the 'why' behind the concept.
Career Boxes explain computer uses in a variety of employment settings, which reinforces the profound role technology plays in the real business world.
Core Edition available to accommodate increased classroom flexibility needs. The Core Edition is a subset of the Comprehensive version. It covers chapters 1-8 of the big book, and is perfect for people who want a little less concepts coverage, or do not prefer to include some of the higher level IS topics (Systems Analysis & Design, Data Mining, etc.) in the latter chapters. It does include the same strong supplements package as the Comprehensive Edition.
Thorough coverage of IS topics in latter chapters (9, 10, & 11) with particular emphasis on the strong relationship between the future professional and technology.
Strong pedagogical elements including chapter openers and end-of-chapter material presented in 'bite-size chunks' for optimum comprehension results.
