책 소개

Networks rule the world. Take an organization of any kind: a corner shop, a new venture, a gang of drug traffickers, the United Nations, Google, the place you work. They are all networks, with their own rules & values & ways of communicating. This book uses the latest in network science research to examine this topic.
In the 1936 film MODERN TIMES, Charlie Chapllin presented a graphic vision of the fate of the individual by placing himself inside a gial revolving wheel - the worker as a mere cog within the remorseless machine that is shaping his life. After 1950 however, heros were cast in a very different light, wilfully at the centre of their own universe.Drawing on the latest in network science research this book aims to show us that humanity is neither a cog in a wheel, nor the master of our own universe, instead we are members of networks that dictate our success or otherwise.
Networks rule the world. Take an organization of any kind: a corner shop, a new venture, a gang of drug traffickers, the United Nations, Google, the place you work. They are all networks, with their own rules and values and ways of communicating. Everybody belongs to networks and they make a huge difference to our lives - to our happiness and to our opportunities.As the world becomes more densely populated, the connections between us are expanding in ever more intricate ways - via the web, mobile phone technology and global media. How does this affect us? And how can we make the most of these connections?SUPERCONNECT looks at how the successful and fortunate few behave - and shows that if you want to be one of them, you have to play by the network rules.
* Fascinating new book that draws on the latest in network science research
