Introduction to social network methods

Table of contents


About this book

This on-line textbook introduces many of the basics of formal approaches to the analysis of social networks. 
The text relies heavily on the
work of Freeman, Borgatti, and Everett (the authors of the UCINET software package). The materials here, and their
organization, were also very strongly influenced by the text of Wasserman and Faust, and by a graduate seminar
conducted by Professor Phillip Bonacich at UCLA.  Many other users have
also made very helpful comments and suggestions based on the first
version.   Errors and omissions, of course, are the responsibility
of the authors.
