Previous writings on ‘critical' approaches to information systems are fragmented. This text provides a coherent set of reference points for students and researchers to see the issues at levels of theory, method and practice as well as presenting a fuller picture of the different approaches that come under the ‘critical' umbrella. The review section at the end of the book applies a ‘critical' voice to the materials discussed in the preceding chapters. The book consists of a collection of chapters from an international array of experts. They are lead researchers in the field and provide valuable insights for those studying and researching in the areas of information systems and general management, especially from a critical perspective. * Provides a coherent set of reference points for students to see the issues at levels of theory, method and practice * Presents practical examples of critical research and demonstrates the lessons learnt from applying a critical approach. * Cutting edge book with newly commissioned international team of authors
The first text in critical information systems for organizations and management.

This book presents research in an interdisciplinary field, resulting from the vigorous and fruitful cross-pollination between traditional deontic logic and computer science. AI researchers have used deontic logic as one of the tools in modelling legal reasoning. Computer scientists have discovered that computer systems (including their interaction with other computer systems and with human agents) can often be productively modelled as norm-governed. So, for example, deontic logic has been applied by computer scientists for specifying bureaucratic systems, access and security policies, and soft design or integrity constraints, and for modelling fault tolerance. In turn, computer scientists and AI researchers have also discovered (and made it clear to the rest of us) that various formal tools (e.g. nonmonotonic, temporal and dynamic logics) developed in computer science and artificial intelligence have interesting applications to traditional issues in deontic logic. This volume presents some of the best work done in this area, with the selection at once reflecting the general interdisciplinary (and international) character that this area of research has taken on, as well as reflecting the more specific recent inter-disciplinary developments between traditional deontic logic and computer science.

THE REALITY BEHIND SYSTEM SUCCESS... Steven Alter's "Information Systems: Foundation of E-Business, fourth edition," emphasizes the essential role information systems play in today's successful businesses. Viewing information systems from a business perspective, is essential for understanding how e-commerce and e-business really work and for appreciating why technology is not a magic bullet that solves all problems. Most current business practices rely on IT, but successful application of any technology involves much more than the technology itself. Today's managers need a way to understand and evaluate the impact and use of technology in their businesses. "This book is an indispensable tool for business and IT students because it: " provides a rigorous, yet non-technical approach, that any manager, executive, or business professional can use to visualize and analyze system-related opportunities and problems that confront almost every company in today's economy. presents a practical, straightforward approach for attaining business results, recognizing possibilities, and avoiding the wasted time and effort consumed by technology initiatives that never achieve their goals. combines the vocabulary of today's technologies with problem solving tools and methods that business and IT students can continue to use in the future. This text's updated coverage of the work system framework and principles, e-business and e-commerce, value and supply chains, ERP systems, networks, and system security, help explain how technology applications make a difference. Its companion web site (www.prenhall.com/alter) extends the book's coverage. Thebalance of theory and practice in this text makes "Information Systems: Foundation of E-Business, fourth edition," a resource that business and IT students can use even after new generations of technology have replaced those of today.
