Two things spring to mind:

Crossing the Chasm by Geoffrey Moore
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0066620023/petermecom
A seminal work in how technologies are adopted by the buying public.

and

Information Rules by Hal Varian and Carl Shapiro
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/087584863X/petermecom
A really smart book about economics in a network economy, by two professors
(on in Information Science, the other in Business) who are able to present
their academic understanding in an extremely accessible way.
