5.0 out of 5 stars Great overview of SNA January 17, 2008
Format:Paperback
A very good beginning text that presents an overview of social network analysis (SNA). It is an easy read that will allow one to understand the basics of SNA, including an overview of the mathematical elements. Also it has a nice reference list for the reader who desires a deeper understanding.
