Synopsis

Foreword by Izak Benbasat, Professor and CanadaResearch Chair in Information Technology Management, University of British Columbia A Balanced Look at HCI in Business Written specifically for Information Systems students, Te'eni, Carey, and Zhang's Human-Computer Interaction: Developing Effective Organizational Information Systems is the first of its kind.

Essential reading for anyone interested in how HCI fits into their work, their relationships, or their life generally." -- Jimwoo Kim, Professor of HCI, Yonsei University "Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is not just for Computer Science anymore! It is re-inventing itself as the kernel of the new proto-discipline of Information. It's wonderful to see the concepts and techniques of HCI brought to life in the context of decision support, project management, enterprise resource planning, and other business applications." -- John M.

This book provides a business-oriented approach to HCI that has been lacking in our curricula. It is not a 'wate
