The structure and dynamics of networks

Scientists from various fields - including mathematics, physics, computer science, sociology, and biology - have been pursuing questions on networks and building a 'science of networks.' This book brings together a set of articles representing research from across these disciplines. It is suitable for research on various types of networks.
