The field of Information Systems has been evolving since the first application of computers in organizations in the early 1950s. Focusing on information systems analysis and design aup to and including the 1980s, the field has expanded enormously, with our assumptions about information and knowledge being challenged, along with both intended and unintended consequences of information technology.

This prestige reference work offers students and researchers a critical reflection on major topics and current scholarship in the evolving field of Information Systems. A single volume survey of the field, it is organized into four parts. The first section deals with Disciplinary and Methodological Foundations. The second section deals with Development, Adoption and Use of MIS – topics that formed the centerpiece of the field of IS in the last century. Section 3 deals with Managing Organizational IS, Knowledge and Innovation, while Section 4 considers emerging and continuing issues and controversies in the field – IS in Society and a Global Context (cf. Volume 4 of the Handbook). Each chapter provides a balanced overview of current knowledge, identifying issues and discussing relevant debates. The style is analytical, reflexive and engaging.

This prestigious book is required reading for any student or researcher in (Management) Information Systems, academics and students covering the breadth of the field, and established researchers seeking a single volume repository on the current state of knowledge, current debates and relevant literature.
