Social and Economic Networks by Matthew O. Jackson is an academic book of economics and social science that explains how relationships between people, firms, and institutions shape behavior and outcomes. It introduces the study of networks as a formal field and draws on economics, sociology, computer science, physics, and mathematics to show why network structure matters. Rather than treating social interaction as background context, the book argues that patterns of connection help determine choices such as employment, consumption, voting, cooperation, and information flow. Jackson presents the basic tools used to analyze networks, including measures of centrality, clustering, degree distribution, and connected components, while also covering models of how networks form. The book is designed both as a textbook and as a reference for students and researchers, making it useful for readers who want a rigorous introduction to network science and its implications for social and economic life.
