Review title: Not suitable for undergrads
Product review: This was the required textbook for my 300-level CIS course, and I found it to be highly disappointing.The initial few chapters are manageable, albeit extremely dry reading. Subsequent chapters offer a frustrating paradox: they seem to overload the reader with details, and yet not enough explanatory detail of the aforementioned details for reader comprehension. It suffers mostly from "stating" information instead of "explaining" it.This book is (perhaps) best suited as a general review text for people already in the know, although it may not even be appropriate for that task. Difficult to read, not enough examples/explanatory detail, unimaginative illustrations...all-in-all an inexplicable choice for an undergraduate textbook, and certainly offers help to neither professor nor student.
