Linked: How Everything Is Connected to Everything Else and What It Means for Business, Science, and Everyday Life
Autor Albert-Laszlo Barabasien Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iun 2014
A
cocktail
party.
A
terrorist
cell.
Ancient
bacteria.
An
international
conglomerate.
All
are
networks,
and
all
are
a
part
of
a
surprising
scientific
revolution.
InLinked,
Albert-László
Barabási,
the
nation's
foremost
expert
in
the
new
science
of
networks,
takes
us
on
an
intellectual
adventure
to
prove
that
social
networks,
corporations,
and
living
organisms
are
more
similar
than
previously
thought.
Barabási
shows
that
grasping
a
full
understanding
of
network
science
will
someday
allow
us
to
design
blue-chip
businesses,
stop
the
outbreak
of
deadly
diseases,
and
influence
the
exchange
of
ideas
and
information.
Just
as
James
Gleick
and
the
Erdos–Rényi
model
brought
the
discovery
of
chaos
theory
to
the
general
public,Linkedtells
the
story
of
the
true
science
of
the
future
and
of
experiments
in
statistical
mechanics
on
the
internet,
all
vital
parts
of
what
would
eventually
be
called
the
Barabási–Albert
model.

"Linkedis

"Linkedcould alter the way we think about all of the networks that affect our lives."—New York Times
"A pleasure to read.... It's the fact that all of these networks can be explained and understood using the same concepts, and the same mathematics, that makes this book so important."—Christian Science Monitor(A Best Book of the Year)

"Linkedshould be mandatory reading for academics as a primer in good writing.
