Towards lifeworld-oriented information systems development

Andrew Basden

pp. 31-53

Information systems (IS) fail far too often. Sometimes the IS never reaches the stage of use, because the IS development (ISD) project fails, or sometimes failure occurs once the IS is in use, in that it provides no real benefits or might even bring harm.
