"It should be an invaluable reference for scholars in the field and a critical resource...." Journal of the American Statistical Association

Wasserman and Faust provide a compass by which to steer our path into the next century." Theory and Methods

Comprehensive Combinatrics,
By Guy Hagen, Innovation Insight (Tampa, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Social Network Analysis: Methods and Applications (Paperback)
I am a research consultant specializing in SNA. This book is the best in the field, as a reference for those formally trained in the discipline or a self-instruction manual for those who really want to use SNA methodology. It's well written; but the mathematical and combinatric underpinnings of SNA won't make for light reading. This books stands out among others in that each subject area is thoroughly documented and cited for further reading and examples of application, and that the base algorithms are provided for most SNA techniques - useful if you want to learn how to "do" instead of just run a software package, or want to program your own. No SNA analyst should neglect this reference.

Seria Referencia de Análisis de Redes Sociales,
By
This review is from: Social Network Analysis: Methods and Applications (Paperback)
Este libro es una referencia seria acerca del estudio de las redes sociales, ya que aborda al tema desde una perspectiva académica y formal, no es muy bueno para aquellos que se están introduciendo al tema, ya que les puede resultar demasiado densa la lectura, sin ambargo para aquellas personas que se dedican a la ciencia e investigación y buscan un tema frontera para iniciar una investigación es excelente.
