Publisher's Synopsis
A great deal has been written and published on the subject of new technology but fundamental questions about "managing" the machines which can revolutionize business have tended to be neglected.;Professor Bessant brings out the importance of the organizational changes which are necessary to make the new technology work. He shows that the challenges, options and opportunities available to industry rest on good selection and implementation of the available technology, and that this requires considerable organizational change and development.;Many courses at advanced undergraduate and postgraduate level are now covering this area and the book will also serve as an introduction to the key technologies and trends for managers in industry.
