Linked. How Everything Is Connected to Everything Else and What It Means for Business, Science, and Everyday Life.

Albert-Lászlo Barabási describes an intellectual adventure that tries to prove how social networks, corporations and living organisms are more similar than previously thought. This introduction to network science guides us through the fundamental concepts underlying neurology, epidemiology, Internet traffic, and many other fields united by complexity. A very enjoyable book that makes difficult concepts easy to understand by the regular reader.
