Product Description
Review
This focus on current issues relating to e-commerce & virtual business is a refreshing change from previous business publications discussing e-commerce, which focus on technology........ The papers challenge traditional thinking & rewrite business models to herald a new & exciting area of development that unites technology & business. This book has a well defined structure & the areas discussed are clearly segregated. It is divided into two sections. This is an interesting book, with case studies on organisations which vary in size, business & location. I would recommend the book to academics, and it is also of interest to practitioners, although it does not provide methods for implementing or capturing success.

A rich source of research and theory surrounding e-commerce and v-business, making the book a useful tool for students studying these aspects of business.

Many of the books i have read simply don't come up to scratch. This book is different. It provides a solid basis for understanding using theory and examples from some excellent universities. For me, some of the chapters helped to unravel issues of current practice.

There are only so many e-commerce books one can read and many of them blend into a blur of me-too. Central to any book must be the question "so what can I learn from this?" or "how can these ideas be applied?" Many of the books I have read simply don't come up to scratch. This book is different. It provides a solid basis for understanding using theory and examples from some excellent universities. For me, some of the chapters helped to unravel issues of current practice. If you are looking for a book that goes beneath the surface, like for a masters degree, this could be the one.

Serious reading matter for any manager wishing to delve deeper into e-business theory. Many relevant ideas discussed in the book (like virtual communities) are at the core of new e-biz strategies to attract and retain customers.

This one's great. It provides a fresh look at e-commerce and how businesses organize their virtual operations. It goes beyond the hype of guru texts and looks at real examples and frameworks to help understand them. Whilst I haven't really heard of some of these examples, others are well known - like KLM. It has academic depth, if that's what you want, and contributions from some famous and less well known professors.
