In these days of ‘dot com’, ‘e−’, global business is the order of the day through websites and domain names. From Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) to e−commerce, a revolutionary change has been seen. EDI is now outdated. The growth of the Internet has created the potential vision of e−commerce. There is nothing new in this term, only a new medium and dimension, a sub−set of e−business. It is only a form of traditional business using electronic means. Recently, there has been a substantial hype created with the emergence of e−commerce, the cutting edge technology of business, a new paradigm, a buzzword in business communication.
E−commerce is to be, viewed as business but not as a technology issue. It is still a commerce and still about human beings. Customers are still customers and business merchants want people at their end.
The book has covered basics, types of e−commerce, intranet, extranet, e−banking, websites, security, internet, EDI and business communication. In this book, the author has attempted to discuss both the theory and practical aspects of e−commerce and e−business. This book is produced in a very non−technical manner for the sake of clarity and simplicity of the concept.
