The nation's foremost expert in the new science of networks takes readers on an intellectual adventure to prove that social networks, corporations, and living organisms are more similar than previously thought.
The first book to explore the hot new science of networks and their impact on nature, business, medicine, and everyday life. }In the 1980's, James Gleick's Chaos introduced the world to complexity. Now, Albert-Lszl Barabsi's Linked reveals the next major scientific leap: the study of networks. We've long suspected that we live in a small world, ...
In this book, the authors explain how fractals can be successfully used to describe and predict the morphology of surface growth. They begin by presenting basic growth models and the principles used to develop them. Next they demonstrate how models can be used to answer specific questions about surface roughness. Written for advanced students in ...
This book brings together two of the most exciting and widely studied subjects in modern physics: namely fractals and surfaces. To the community interested in the study of surfaces and interfaces, it brings the concept of fractals. To the community interested in the exciting field of fractals and their application, it demonstrates how these ...
Epitaxial growth is a critical technology in numerous areas ranging from elemental semi-conductors to optoelectronic materials, from magnetic multilayers to inorganic insulators, from protein crystals to quantum dots. This volume brings together an international mix of researchers and scientists to address common themes in epitaxial growth. ...
