\nAlbert-L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Barab\u00e1si, author of LINKED, wants you to think about NETWORKS:\u201cNetworks are everywhere. The brain is a network of nerve cells connected by axons, and cells themselves are networks of molecules connected by biochemical reactions. Societies, too, are networks of people linked by friendships, familial relationships and professional ties. On a larger scale, food webs and ecosystems can be represented as networks of species. And networks pervade technology: the Internet, power grids and transportation systems are but a few examples. Even the language we are using to convey these thoughts to you is a network, made up of words connected by syntactic relationships.\u201d Created by By @jason_silva and @notthisbody<\/p>\n
