Management Information Systems

Books

Although you can learn much simply by using the computer and reading the on-line documentation, books are a useful way to learn both theoretical and practical aspects of computing. Very few university computing courses in the US are taught without at least one student textbook. These are just a few of the many introductory books on computers that will be used in the course or you might find useful.
