Rather than focusing on a specific software title, the authors explain the theories which are true for any system, and so provide a solid and structured background for aspiring software developers to build upon. With a new design and new features within the text, the book is now even easier to follow and the examples and exercises have also been restructured to improve the knowledge flow to the student. The accessible approach to systems analysis and design is suitable for computer science students on any introductory course, or for those coming from other disciplines with an interest in software development. The 'just-a-line' case study which runs throughout the book takes a clear line from systems design, through development to implementation and release and provides coverage of project management techniques and testing and crisis management. The book is supported by an Online Learning Centre with many resources for students and lecturers. - The well-established and highly regarded presentation and writing style is clear and compelling for both the student and the lecturer. - There are many examples and exercises, especially in areas often found challenging, like normalisation. -
