December 13, 2001: Interesting text... helps the reader to fully appreciate issues related to e-commerce. The reader can use the exercises to develop an electronic commerce construction. Focus boxes and Web Breaks are instrumental to uncovering ec principles that scale, work across the space, and adapt as features and functionality inevitably change. Excellent book - exactly what I was looking for: a book that combines theory, technique, and tools.
