| book description |

This book attempts to make sense of a new area of integrated study, namely information systems and information technology (IS/IT) and the organization. It also aims to bring this mix into the broader theme of complexity as applied to organization and management and to draw useful conclusions about how to organize and how to manage IS/IT in the knowledge era. The author argues in favour of a more action-oriented - as opposed to planning dominated - approach to information systems management. Key topics discussed include: complexity, enacted cognition and autopoiesis applied to organizations; managerial action as a foil to the prevailing managerial paradigm; managerial action and the formation of cultural knowledge contexts in organizations and an holistic approach to information systems development. The book concludes with consideration of the problems surrounding epistemology. Organizational Knowledge and Technology will be warmly welcomed by academics and researchers working in the areas of technology, management, information systems and organizational science as well as information systems managers.
