‘In the category...of works of brilliant originality that stimulate and enlighten and can sometimes even change the way we understand the world’ New York Times Review of Books
‘An illuminating account of the pervasive and often bizarre qualities of social networks...We like to think we are largely in control of our day-to-day lives, yet most of what we do, and even the way we feel, is significantly influenced by those around us – and those around them, and those around them....The authors excel at drawing out the devil in the detail: their explanations of how the architecture of networks dictates their dynamics are compelling....profound’ Michael Bond, New Scientist
