The first edition of this book appeared in the Federal Republic of
Gennany in 1984. and in English translation as "Computer: A
Challenge for Business Administration" in 1985. This book. which is
a translation of the fourth Gennan edition. has been
comprehensively revised. As a result both the character and the
expected audience of the book have changed. which is reflected in
the alteration to the title. This book adresses itself to issues
arising from the research areas of both infonnation systems and
computer science. Computer science departments are primarily
concerned with the development of EDP techniques. and the business
economics aspects remain largely Ignored. The emphasis in
infonnation systems departments is placed on the investigation of
the business economic impact of the use of already existing
systems. This strongly empirical approach is accompanied by a
disinclination to consider actual system deSign: this is considered
the responsibility of the software houses. This partitioning.
however. leaves untapped the considerable potential which could be
realized by an interdisciplinary approach from computer science and
business economics. An isolated approach neglects both the effects
that business economics can have on the implementation of EDP
techniques. and the structural impact of EDP on business economics.
