"Experts in the field of social networks aim to help readers grasp the state of the art in the topic of network-based representation and analysis in this collection of papers. ... the editors give readers a snapshot of recent work by presenting in each chapter a self-contained paper from different experts in the field. ... recommend the book to anyone that wants to quickly get a grasp on the heterogeneity of subtopics that are studied in the social networks domain." (Sergio Queiroz, Computing Reviews, April, 2015)
