商品描述

Networks of relationships help determine the careers that people choose, the jobs they obtain, the products they buy, and how they vote. The many aspects of our lives that are governed by social networks make it critical to understand how they impact behavior, which network structures are likely to emerge in a society, and why we organize ourselves as we do. In Social and Economic Networks, Matthew Jackson offers a comprehensive introduction to social and economic networks, drawing on the latest findings in economics, sociology, computer science, physics, and mathematics. He provides empirical background on networks and the regularities that they exhibit, and discusses random graph-based models and strategic models of network formation. He helps readers to understand behavior in networked societies, with a detailed analysis of learning and diffusion in networks, decision making by individuals who are influenced by their social neighbors, game theory and markets on networks, and a host of related subjects. Jackson also describes the varied statistical and modeling techniques used to analyze social networks. Each chapter includes exercises to aid students in their analysis of how networks function.

This book is an indispensable resource for students and researchers in economics, mathematics, physics, sociology, and business.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

社會網絡的關係網絡有助於決定人們的職業選擇、獲得的工作、購買的產品以及投票方式。社會網絡所統治的我們生活的許多方面使得了解它們如何影響行為、哪些網絡結構可能在社會中出現以及我們為什麼會組織自己變得至關重要。在《社會與經濟網絡》一書中,馬修·傑克遜(Matthew Jackson)根據經濟學、社會學、計算機科學、物理學和數學的最新研究成果,提供了對社會和經濟網絡的全面介紹。他提供了關於網絡和它們展示的規律性的實證背景,並討論了基於隨機圖的網絡模型和戰略模型的形成。他幫助讀者理解網絡社會中的行為,詳細分析了在網絡中的學習和傳播、受其社交鄰居影響的個體的決策、網絡上的博弈論和市場,以及一系列相關主題。傑克遜還描述了用於分析社會網絡的各種統計和建模技術。每章都包含練習題,以幫助學生分析網絡的運作方式。

這本書對經濟學、數學、物理學、社會學和商業領域的學生和研究人員來說是一個不可或缺的資源。
