    Abstract
    Some form of information accounting must be brought on line and accepted by accountants and business managers if the holdings of information assets and the products of information work are to be given their proper importance. Discusses the questions of defining and measuring the value of information and presents an integrated value methodology which draws on the analytical resources of accounting theory and systems engineering. Implementation of the methodology has shown that it is feasible to deal rogorously with the intangible value related to information and information assets and to reflect it meaningfully back into a financial framework. A respected form of information accounting will yield distinct direct and political advantages

    Abstract
    The realization that knowledge and information provide the fundamental drivers of economic growth, whether at national or company level, is beginning to permeate economic and management thinking. Considers the concept of information mastery and how it relates to information management. Information mastery involves more than good information management; it also encopasses human networking and thought, and is reinforced by the effectiveness with which information technology, computers and telecoms are used to reinforce information management and human cognition. The key to information mastery lies at the interface between information systems and cognitive systems. Presents an agenda for information mastery which is seen as a critical factor for success in human business and organizations
