Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
The revised and updated edition of this bestselling text provides an accessible introduction to the theory and practice of network analysis in the social sciences. It gives a clear and authoritative guide to the general framework of network analysis, explaining the basic concepts, technical measures and reviewing the available computer programs.P/PPThe book outlines both the theoretical basis of network analysis and the key techniques for using it as a research tool. Building upon definitions of points, lines and paths, John Scott demonstrates their use in clarifying such measures as density, fragmentation and centralization. He identifies the various cliques, components and circles into which networks are formed, and outlines an approach to the study of socially structured positions. He also discusses the use of multidimensional methods for investigating social networks./PP/PPBSocial Network Analysis/B is an invaluable resource for researchers across the social sciences and for students of social theory and research methods./P

I haven't read all of the book yet but what I have read, I have found valuable. Rather than find all of the original cites and such in articles, Scott has a lot of the info in one place.

It's the best book I've read on the subject. It's clear and wide. It could be understad as a theorical context for Faust and Wasserman book: Social Network Analisys.
