waste of paperAugust 5, 2004 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book is a required reading for a paper I am doing on e-commerce. Why am I rating it 1 star?
Definitions: contradictory and often plain wrong. Impossible to understand or memorise. It appears to be intentionally written in a language hard to understand. I guess it's for super-people.
Headings of paragraphs: contradict with the actual content.
It also uses (technical) terms in non-technical context. Something like "inventing" new terminology for things that already have clear and widely accepted terminology. This would wihtout a doubt make a conversation between a manager and Information Systems professional looooong and unbearable.
Overall: One of the worst textbooks I've used to date. Inconsistent. Wrong. Impossible to understand/use.
