Book Description

This title allows students to do systems analysis and design right from the start. Examples and cases are drawn from actual systems projects that enable students to learn in the context of solving problems, much like the ones they will encounter on the job. A blend of traditional development and current techniques, such as client-server and object-oriented development, graphical user interfaces, and electronic data interchange are provided. The clear writing style makes systems analysis and design easy to understand.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Students Love It!, January 28, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Systems Analysis and Design, Fourth Edition (Paperback)
I teach systems analysis courses, and this book is an excellent text for us. It is easy to read, well-researched, and describes current real-world thinking in this field. It has many good case studies, along with an on-line virtual company case study that is unique. I highly recommend this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for students, December 20, 2002
This review is from: Systems Analysis and Design, Fourth Edition (Paperback)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The book covers a broad spectrum of systems issues and is a good introduction for the aspiring systems analyst. Systems Analysis and Design would go well in a classroom setting as it does well to outline and explain the roles, environment, and tools of a systems analyst.

The book was written to help prepare the reader for the Master CIW Enterprise Developer certification exam (Database Specialist).
