Reviews
Dorogovtsev is one of the top researchers in probably the hottest new research field today: networks science. He is responsible for a number of fundamental results pertaining to the structure and dynamics of scale-free networks. In this book we see a different aspect of him: as an educator, he offers a concise introduction to complex networks. Lectures on Complex Networks is a wonderful elementary yet non-compromising starting point for anybody who would like to get acquainted with the science of networks. * Albert-Laszlo Barabasi, Center for Complex Network Research, Northeastern University, US *
An introduction likely to be of interest to serious students at an undergraduate level or above who are interested in the recent work on understanding complex networks. * Nigel Gilbert, University of Surrey, UK *
Complex networks are an important topic and this book will fill a space in the market between the popular science books and the technical reference works on the topic. * Geoff Rodgers, Brunel University, UK *
