Of Dollars and CASE

Abstract

Despite the importance of the topic, there are very few books about MIS economics, and most of those that are available are of an academic nature. One book that does offer a practical and unique view of how MIS managers can justify the “worth” of their systems is reviewed in this column. Also reviewed are two books offering strong opinions about two different MIS concerns – implementing CASE and improving productivity with structured walkthroughs.
