N2  - "In the constantly-changing world of information technology, it's easy to get caught up in the myriad details and lose sight of the big picture: the truths that never change, the ideas at the heart of all successful technology management, and the lessons we learn along the way. In this new revised fifth edition of Principles of Information Systems, Ralph Stair and George Reynolds have made a marked return to the idea formed in the first edition: "IS principles first, where they belong." Each chapter begins with Learning Objectives that are tied to Principles, and these Principles, not a sea of disconnected details, become the heart of the chapter, and the river from which the chapter's key concepts flow. With these overarching Principles to guide them, readers will not only achieve the best possible foundation in the management of information systems; they will also be eminently equipped to flourish in a world where embracing the rapid pace of change is vital to their success."--BOOK JACKET
