Ian Angell and Heemanshu Jain

Ian has been professor of Information Systems at the London School of Economics since 1986. He has very radical yet constructive views on his subject, and is very critical of what he calls “the pseudo-science of Information Systems.” He has gained a certain notoriety worldwide for his aggressive polemics against the inappropriate use of artificial intelligence and so-called knowledge management, and against the hyperbole surrounding ‘e-commerce.’ The Times has called him the ‘Angell of Doom’, and the Guardian the ‘Guru of Gloom.’ See www.ianangell.com.
