Provides an account of the theoretical and methodological underpinnings of exponential random graph models (ERGMs), as well as a compendium of ERGM methods and illustrative applications. The reader is given sufficient detail to specify ERGMs, fit them to data with any of the available software packages and interpret the results.

Cr�ticas:

'I've been waiting impatiently for this book and I was definitely not disappointed. Finally we have a sourcebook on ERGMs that is both comprehensive and comprehensible. Most of the chapters are written for quantitative researchers who are not statisticians. Many illustrative empirical applications are worked through. Software packages are discussed. For the researcher who is intrigued by the possibility of analyzing network data with an ERGM, or who is already trying to do so, this is an indispensable resource.' Peter Carrington, University of Waterloo

'This collection offers readers an intuitive understanding of ERGMs, followed by a formal explanation of their statistical underpinnings as well as a methodological cookbook based on current software. Next, network scholars at the forefront of advancing theoretical and methodological contributions present eight compelling empirical studies. These studies illustrate how ERGMs offer exciting opportunities to advance theoretical understandings of network phenomena at the intra-organizational, inter-organizational, and societal levels.' Noshir Contractor, Jane S. and William J. White Professor of Behavioral Sciences, Northwestern University

'p*, the exponential family of random graph distributions introduced by Frank and Strauss in 1986, has indeed become the best statistical model in network science. This edited volume is a must-have - Lusher, Koskinen, and Robins have put together a thorough compilation for both the p* novice and enthusiast. It is the handbook to own - and use!' Stanley Wasserman, Indiana University
