It bridges real examples of the many ways E-Business is used to augment, substitute, disrupt, and dis-intermediate the normal practices of business with the relevant academic views of the same. The result is a powerful tool for practitioners and academics that allows the reader to drill down on these issues in whatever depth is desired.\" \u003ci\u003eThomas H.
