The breadth of coverage is pleasantly coupled with depth in key aspects of e-business, so that readers interested in either business or technology will find it discussed in a thorough and insightful way.”

Fabio Casati, Ph.D. Senior scientist Hewlett-Packard Company, Palo Alto, CA  

“This book represents a shift in our thinking of e-business; away from purely technical considerations, to a view that embraces business and technical perspectives. The international examples of business applications and technical exercises will be of great value to students”.

Professor Christopher P. Holland, Manchester Business School

“Over the past 10 years, e-business has revolutionized the way enterprises conduct business with each other. Yet we are still at the dawn of this revolution because the technology that supports e-business is complex and still being specified. Mike and Piet’s book provides the foundation to understand what has been accomplished and to innovate in building the economy of the 21st century.”

Jean-Jacques Dubray, Ph.D., Editor of the OASIS ebXML Business Process Specification v2.0.1
