Buy
From the senior management to the clerical and support group levels, this study addresses the possible pitfalls and triumphs of implementing information technology (IT) into organizations in terms of organizational strategies, structures, and communication methods. Issues of human-computer interaction, ethics, privacy, and security are raised to help facilitate a sociopragmatic and constuctivist understanding of IT culture.

IT influence is being felt throughout modern organizations, from the senior management level to various clerical and support group levels. As IT has grown in sophistication along a broad range of technical aspects and features, organizational personnel have witnessed changes in organizational life and ways of doing business that have transformed their thinking about what it means to contribute effectively and efficiently to the well-being of their organizations. IT has influenced organizational strategy making, has altered organizational structures and cultures, has reshaped organizational communication and learning and has changed management thinking about organizational design. Computing Information Technology: The Human Side addresses both the pitfalls and triumphs of implementing information technology into organizations.
