Presenting a comprehensive resource for the mastery of network analysis in R the goal of
Network Analysis with R is to introduce modern network analysis techniques in R to social
physical and health scientists. The mathematical foundations of network analysis are
emphasized in an accessible way and readers are guided through the basic steps of network
studies: network conceptualization data collection and management network description
visualization and building and testing statistical models of networks. As with all of the
books in the Use R! series each chapter contains extensive R code and detailed visualizations
of datasets. Appendices will describe the R network packages and the datasets used in the book.
An R package developed specifically for the book available to readers on GitHub contains
relevant code and real-world network datasets as well.
