Reviews & Statements

"The purpose of this book is to lay some theoretical foundations for understanding e-services as well as provide real life cases of e-services. The cases have been chosen in different fields such as accounting, libraries, martial arts, and insurance to illustrate the complexity and the infancy of the e-service paradigm."

– Ada Scupola, Roskilde University, Denmark
