Summary: Ignorable gibberish
Review: Although some of the introductory sections are ok, the whole book is nothing great. Wasted my $$ on this book. A lot of the information can be downloaded off the Internet, besides I found out that their book is also available online in PDF form. Also a lot of information is out-dated, and not very useful. As a whole, I'd say dont waste your money on this (text) book. Go for "Clicks and Mortar" by David S. Pottruck, Terry Pearce instead.

Summary: One of the most insightful texts on e-commerce
Review: Don't expect to get too much theory out of this book. The theory is only for people who don't know nothing about ecommerce. However, the case studies are pretty good because they bring you real examples of how IT/Internet/ecommerce impact on organization. This book is good for class dicussion. But you will find it boring and may not be able to extract the most out of it if you just read the text.

Summary: Its a classic text book for eCommerce
Review: Global eCommerce is a good text book for eCommerce. Its a text book in terms of the style its written in, tone, and level of insight. If you are looking for a broad based reference book then its OK. Otherwise there are better books (eProcess Edge, Customers.com, and others) that provide more detail insight and understanding.

Summary: A sheer waste of money
Review: I find this book is a little too expensive for what you are getting in content and quality. The structure and the presentation of the book has not been planned out properly. Trying to read it is painstaking. I totally agree with one of the reviewers before me, it's full of gibberish. It's not worth the money spent. Very disappointed.

Summary: Good textbook, unique material
Review: I purchased this text for a course in e-commerce. I have not found another text that covers e-commerce infrastructure as well as this book. Organization and style are adequate.

Summary: Historical context of e-commerce
Review: The chapters and case studies in the book come from a unique viewpoint which places electronic commerce in the context of the recent history of business. I liked the approach, though it may not be for everyone. The book could be better integrated, and the tone of writing tends more toward that of a textbook. On the whole I found the material to be well thought through.
