As we embark on our tenth year of publication, we are extremely pleased at
the continuing enthusiasm for USING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY as
a concepts textbook for the introductory college course on computers. More
than half a million students have been introduced to this dynamic and exciting
subject through UIT’s five earlier editions, and instructors in over 600
schools have selected it for use in their courses.
What are the reasons for this acceptance? One is that UIT was the first
textbook to foresee and define the impact of digital convergence—the fusion
of computers and communications—as the new and broader foundation for
this course. And we have continued to try to pioneer in coverage of new
developments. Thus, we are gratified to hear reviewers label UIT as the most
up-to-date text published for this course.
