Information systems development is not merely a technical
intervention but involves social and ethical dilemmas that affect
the human, social and organizational domains. To demonstrate this
point, the authors conduct a thorough and substantive description
and analysis of the conceptual and philosophical underpinnings of
systems development. In particular they analyse a number of systems
development methodologies including structured methods,
prototyping, ETHICS and Soft Systems Methodology to reveal the
underlying conceptual and philosophical foundations. The book
provides an in-depth analysis of data modelling theory and its
links with theories of language and cognition. It offers a
framework to describe and analyse different systems development
approaches and to explain their strengths and weaknesses. The book
is aimed at graduate students taking courses in information systems
and data modelling, but will also appeal to information systems
managers and professionals for whom the summary of methodologies
will be useful.
