Understanding Large Temporal Networks and Spatial Networks: Exploration, Pattern Searching, Visualization and Network Evolution

Understanding Large Temporal Networks and Spatial Networks: Exploration, Pattern Searching, Visualization and Network Evolution was published in a series of books on Computational and Quantitative Social Science with Wiley. This important book is written by Vladimir Batagelj (Faculty of Mathematics, University of Ljubljana), Patrick Doreian (Department of Sociology, University of Pittsburgh), Anuška Ferligoj (Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Ljubljana) and Nataša Kejžar (Institute for Biostatistics and Medical Informatics, University of Ljubljana. The work is one of the most important contributions in the field of social network analysis and deals with social mechanisms contributing to the changing nature of networks as well as links these former to various models of changing network structures and patterns. It represents an important contribution identifying social processes generating these networks and the mechanisms of network development on a social and methodological level.
