The third edition of this bestselling text has been fully revised and updated to include
coverage of the many developments in social network analysis (SNA) over the last decade.
Written in a clear and accessible style, the book introduces these topics to newcomers
and non-specialists and gives sufficient detail for more advanced users of SNA. Throughout
the book, key ideas are discussed in relation to the principal software programs available
for SNA ; The book provides a comprehensive overview of the field, outlining both
its theoretical basis and its key techniques. Drawing from the core ideas of points,
lines and paths, John Scott builds a framework of network analysis that covers such
measures as density, centrality, clustering, centralisation and spatialisation. He
identifies the various types of clique, component and circle into which networks are
formed, and he outlines an approach to socially structured positions within networks.
A completely new chapter discusses recent work on network dynamics and methods for
studying change over time. A final chapter discusses approaches to network visualisation
; This is an excellent resource for researchers across the social sciences and for
students of social theory and research methods
