This is a great textbook about Systems Analysis and Design. The whole textbook is under wonderful organization. As a MIS student, this textbook is the best start point to understand the systems analysis and design. The prototyping chapter is the best one, compare to other same topic books. In addition, the HyperCase is the best example to show how Internet could help teaching. Good product, arrived ahead of schedule, and in new condition as advertised by seller. Overall I experience no problems.
