 Management
Information Systems - concepts, issues, tools and applicationsDownload of sample files available This book provides a comprehensive coverage of important information systems topics that will be of interest to all managers. Each topic has been covered in sufficient depth to enable the student to handle problems normally encountered in business, but works from a basis of no prior knowledge. The book is divided into five sections: The approach taken is to illustrate theoretical issues through the use of practical examples using commonly available microcomputer software packages (Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Microsoft Project and Visual Basic) to build and implement small systems. Use of the computer software is an important part of this course. It is arguable, of course, to what extent managers need to understand systems development and programming, but this book takes the line that even though most managers may not need to do very much of this, it is still useful for them to have an understanding of what is involved and of what is possible.
