| Abstract
|
:
|
If you're looking for simple solutions and quick fixes, this book isn't for you. And if you are, you're going to find that they don't work anyway. So read this book. Magalhaes brings together insights from the fields of information systems, organisation studies, knowledge management, strategy and innovation, and synthesises them into a work designed to make you think and reflect deeply on why it is that information technology's impacts on organisations are full of opportunity and promise, and yet at the same time, full of surprises and unintended consequences - often leading to failure. Magalh.
