Description
A brilliant recasting of the turning points in world history, including the one we're living through, as a struggle between old power hierarchies and new social networks. A reevaluation of history's turning points as collisions between old power hierarchies and new social networks explains how networks have always existed and have been responsible for key innovations and revolutionary ideas, from clustering and degrees of separation to contagions and phase transitions.
