Rezensionen
From the reviews:

"This book is a comprehensive overview of the theory behind the social networking applied in the electronic space. ... Impressive lists of references accompany all chapters, and several chapters offer brief case studies. The book also includes a useful index. This book is a useful resource for academics, educators, researchers, and graduate students, and, to a certain degree, designers, developers, engineers, and practitioners who wish to understand the social network theory background." (Rita Puzmanova, ACM Computing Reviews, August, 2011)
