Critics Review

The current volume by Dorogovtsev and Mendes takes quite a broad view of complex networks to include the analysis of finite and infinite graphs, directed and undirected graphs, multigraphs, hypergraphs, and even simplicial complexes, as networks scale according to increasing N or in some other fashion. The writing style is that of physics and especially statistical mechanics with frequent connections made to physical concepts such as Bose-Einstein condensation…The current volume can especially serve as a useful reference on complex networks from a physics perspective. * Lenwood S.
