4.0 out of 5 stars It is a school book
This book is what you would expect. It helps the people like myself who have worked in the industry for a long time but never went to school. Further, it does have information that people who do not know anything, will need to survive. To buy this book in order to read, I would say not to do that. If this is a requirement for school and you don't know IT or MIS, then you...

2.0 out of 5 stars Boon to Ritalin industry
You can pretty much judge this one by its cover. It's very shiny and contains a grammatical error right in the title. Nearly half of the book is occupied by graphics and other visual aids. Personally, I felt like I was developing ADD reading this book. I was constantly being diverted away from the text by figures that more often than not added nothing of value. The...

2.0 out of 5 stars Boon to Ritalin industry, September 4, 2008

This review is from: Business Driven Information Systems with MISource 2007 and Student CD (Hardcover)
You can pretty much judge this one by its cover. It's very shiny and contains a grammatical error right in the title. Nearly half of the book is occupied by graphics and other visual aids. Personally, I felt like I was developing ADD reading this book. I was constantly being diverted away from the text by figures that more often than not added nothing of value. The book is fairly shallow and is oriented to young business majors with zero technical background. One positive aspect was that it provided plenty of real-world examples. For those from CS or MIS backgrounds, this is certainly not worth the ~$120; you probably already know half the book already. For business majors I can't judge, although I would consider it to be a light introduction. A must have for connoisseurs of shiny objects.

2.0 out of 5 stars Glad the Reading is Over..., April 4, 2010
I bought this book for course I took. Wow! Boring! The text has some real world examples, but nothing of any interest. The writing is dull and sometimes doesn't flow with previous ideas. I am glad I finished the book, and glad I do not have to open it again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Turned out not to be the 2nd edition as indicated, September 4, 2009
This review is from: Business Driven Information Systems with MISource 2007 and Student CD (Hardcover)
This book turned out not to be the 2nd edition as noted. It has caused some difficulties and I will have to re-purchase the correct book. If the seller has one that specifically says "2nd Edition" on the cover, I would be happy to swap out for the correct one.

Please let me know before I look elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars MIS 300, July 15, 2009
Actully I bought this book because I am taking MIS course in the University. It is a nice book for beginner because it gives you important information as an introduction to the Management Information System in the business field.

5.0 out of 5 stars Timely delivery, September 28, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Business Driven Information Systems with MISource 2007 and Student CD (Hardcover)
I needed books for college and did not have very long to wait. I received my books ordered in a timely manner. I had never ordered anything online and was not sure about how secure this would be but it was totally worth. After I had compared prices with other ways to purchase I realized I found the best deal. I would not hesitate to order books or products this way again if I need anything.

I purchased this book from an Amazon seller. This book arrived in great condition with very fast shipping service. I would use this seller again. The book shows very little use and I look forward to using it this next quarter at college.
