About this product
Product Information
This 2007 book provides a systematic account of the fast-developing theory of complex social networks. Starting with a discussion of the basic 'benchmark' models for the complex-network literature: random networks, small worlds, and scale-free networks, the book then considers the three forces that underlie network phenomena in social contexts: diffusion, search, and play.

More than 81,217 academic economists are involved in research collaborations! Complex Social Networks is about how to describe and analyse such large scale networks, the backbone of many important phenomena, including word-of-mouth spreading of job opportunities or the diffusion of technological change. Written by a leading scholar in interdisciplinary work, this encyclopaedic and very accessible book is a must-have for every researcher or graduate student in this field.” --Antoni Calvó-Armengol, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Network theory is one of the liveliest areas of research in economics, game theory and the social sciences more generally. It is also a fast-growing subject in computer science, engineering, and biology. This impressive volume presents a wide range of applications of theories of complex networks to social environments, including, among others, labor markets, peer group effects, trust and trade, and research and development. The reader is guided though the basic approaches to research at the frontiers at the very frontiers of our knowledge. The book will be an invaluable resource for both graduate students and for researchers in network theory and its applications.” --Myrna Wooders, Vanderbilt University, "More than 81,217 academic economists are involved in research collaborations!

To physicists, it will reveal the rich diversity of social and economic networks; to economists, it will introduce the tools and techniques of random graphs and complexity analysis. By integrating recent advances in the theory of complex networks with economic models of interaction, Fernando Vega Redondo sheds new light onto a number of fundamental issues: the diffusion of innovations in large societies, the optimal design of search algorithms in complex organizations, the achievement of coordination and cooperation among agents disseminated in social networks." --Francis Bloch, University of Aix-Marseille and University of Warwick, Network theory is one of the liveliest areas of research in economics, game theory and the social sciences more generally.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
