As the most comprehensive reference work dealing with decision support
systems (DSS), this book is essential for the library of every DSS
practitioner, researcher, and educator. Written by an international
array of DSS luminaries, it contains more than 70 chapters that approach
decision support systems from a wide variety of perspectives. These
range from classic foundations to cutting-edge thought, informative to
provocative, theoretical to practical, historical to futuristic, human
to technological, and operational to strategic. The chapters are
conveniently organized into ten major sections that novices and experts
alike will refer to for years to come.
