You use social networks every day, but how can we understand how they work to affect our decisions, our careers, our health, and our histories? The field of Social Network Analysis is the dynamic and highly adaptable group of techniques that let us quantify and understand the complex structures and flows of relationships, thoughts, and things between people around the world.
