Summary: The Power of IT review
Review: "The Power of IT" is a very good, well researched, summary introductory text to IT. Its advantage to other similar texts exists in the focus is not on computers, but the processes and domains that hold "IT" together. From this grounding and basis, more advanced topics can be launched into with comparative ease.

The book is extremely useful for those entering the field of IT, students wanting a wide grasp, as well as IT professionals wanting to review 'other' areas of IT from which they may practise or lack experience.
