Résumé :
|
Social Networks and Health is a succinct introduction to the theory and methods underlying the study of social networks analysis as applied to public health and social science topics. The author writes in a style that should be accessible to readers interested in understanding the social science basis for social networks. In spite of its general accessibility, the book should also serve as a useful reference for those interested in the more mathematical applications of social network analysis to public health and medical problems. The underlying and unifying theme is that human health behaviors are shaped by communications among, within, and between human groups.
