3.0 out of 5 stars Good book with not enough diagrams, November 16, 2001
By 
"sweetness" (Ontario, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Decision Support Systems: A Knowledge Based Approach : (Hardcover)
This book explains decision support systems fairly well, but does not have a great deal of diagrams to explain the processes. The definitions in the back are clear-cut and help with the explanations. Printer should have done a better job copying the book, because it looks like it was copied by a machine that was running out of toner.
