Product Description
A refreshingly straightforward introduction to an important area. This was originally written for a group of company directors, and combines an easy-going style with a high density of information. Aimed at an intelligent audience that is looking for information on how technology is used, and how it works, without having to learn all the mumbo-jumbo, it describes the reasons behind technology choices as well as the technology itself. Are your IT colleagues trying to sell you on a particular technical solution? This will help you understand how it might help your business. Is your boss trying to get you to adopt some new fad? This will help you separate the hype from the value, and educate him or her on what will really make a difference. Copiously illustrated in color.
