Chapter 1: Introduction------------------------------ Chapter 2: Graph Theory--------------------------- Chapter 3: Random Networks----------------------------- Chapter 4: The Scale-free Property----------------------------- Chapter 5: The Barabasi-Albert Model-------------------------- Chapter 6: Evolving Networks------------------------- Chapter 7: Degree Correlation----------------------- Chapter 1: Network Robustness--------------------------- Chapter 9: Communities-------------------------- Chapter 10: Spreading Phenomena-----------------------
Summary: "Networks are everywhere, from the Internet, to social networks, and the genetic networks that determine our biological existence. Illustrated throughout in full colour, this pioneering textbook, spanning a wide range of topics from physics to computer science, engineering, economics and the social sciences, introduces network science to an interdisciplinary audience. From the origins of the six degrees of separation to explaining why networks are robust to random failures, the author explores how viruses like Ebola and H1N1 spread, and why it is that our friends have more friends than we do. Using numerous real-world examples, this innovatively designed text includes clear delineation between undergraduate and graduate level material"--Page [4] of cover.
