摘要：This cogent review of the managerial and organizational cognition literatures nicely '' pulls together'' the important ideas and developments in one of the more promising and exciting fields of inquiry in the organizational sciences.

ICMC can be expected to evolve into the mainstream of existing communications infrastructure, but this evolution is not occurring uniformly across organizations.

摘要：Organizational research in Europe and the United States differs in style and substance. Viewed comparatively, important inter-continental differences persist in theory, method, and problem. However, viewed longitudinally, convergence of the two traditions over the last decade is striking.
