Information technology lives all around us - in how we communicate, how we do business, how we shop, how we learn, even how we register for classes. Smart phones, iPods, PDAs, and wireless devices dominate our lives, and yet it's all too easy to take information technology for granted. Now, Rainer, Turban, and Potter's "Introduction to Information Systems" helps make information technology come alive in the classroom. This text takes students where IT lives - in today's businesses and in our daily lives - and helps them understand how valuable information technology is to their future careers.
