This list was began in 2000 by Prof. Richardson. By 2002 there have been so many e-commerce and internet marketing books flood the market we no longer care about keeping up to date with all of them - these books in the gallery below simply represent the books we have looked at. There are probably other good books "out there", but I'm too busy teaching 24+ hrs a week to review them all. Basically, the books listed here are books that I have personally used in my several e-commerce classes, or books I have on my shelf cause a rep gave me a free copy.

Getting Started with Electronic Commerce, by Floyd Fuller. Prof. Fuller designed this as a text with lots of "end-of-chapter" activities as well as key term summaries. As the title suggests, it is aimed at people who have no prior e-commerce understanding and does not take them very far into the subject.
It is one of the Harcourt College series. Look at the online table of contents and judge for yourself. A lot of good effort went in to this book with diagrams and graphics.

First obtained by Prof. Richardson in October 2000.

In ECOM 101, IEC 802 and to some extent in IEC 902, we have a section dealing with E-commerce strategy, mergers & acquisitions and business models and this book is very useful in that context; also, it has an accompanying web sitewww.futurizenow.comwhich is very advertorial about Siegel et al and has not as much information as it could about the actual book. Siegel also has his own corporate web site at
www.siegelvision.comConsultant David Siegel has a particularly good section in his book (Chpt 2) on  "Why Most Web Strategies Fail". One of the big benefits of this book is the many useful cases studies and "real examples" collected herein.
