It has been defined in many different ways. The most suitable definition for our purposes is: "Information Technology is concerned with systems for the creation, acquisition, processing, storage, retrieval, selection, transformation, dissemination and use of vocal, pictorial, textual and numerical information. Current systems typically utilize a microelectronics- based combination of computing and telecommunications."

Huwa l-isem ta' min inqata' mit-tradizzjoni tejatrinali Maltija, biex ta dimensjoni aktar wiesgha lill-idjoma tejatrali Maltija. Fil-kitbiet tejatrali tieghu nsibu t-tejatru rejalistiku, it-tejatru naturalistiku, it-tejatru espressjonista u t-teajtru ta' l-assurd, jekk dawn l- isijiet ifissru xi haga. Il-'fenomenu' Ebejer halla l-ewwel impronta tieghu fil-kuntest Malti lejn tmiem is-sittinijiet. Huwa kiteb b'idjoma li lahqet il-poplu - aktar milli b'dik li nistghu nsejhulha komprensjoni ta' dak li 1- karattri tieghu jkunu qeghdin ighidu, aktar bl-effett tejatrali u l-istat ta' rwieh imqallba li jikkaratterizzaw id-drammi.

The novel is based on Greene's own travel book, titled The Lawless Roads, in which we find descriptions of the author's observations as he travels across Mexico in 1938. Fiction in the novel and fact in the travel account parallel each other in various ways and many are the affinities of character, incident and place. For this reason, The Power and the Glory has a special relation to reality, for not only are the fictional characters and events treated as if they actually happened but there is an aesthetic narrative quality of telling the truth about it all.
