Description:Sidney Redner reviewed Linked in the July 11th issue of Nature, p. 127-128: "...Barabasi presents an entertaining introduction to this vital field at a level that is generally accessible to the layperson interested in modern science." True enough. I, however, would go a large step further: Linked offers many heuristic possibilities if your interests are in genetic, neural, electronic, or social organizations. Much of the existing literature marvels at the beauty of complex organizations but doesn't take us past awe and eye candy. Yes, emergence exists but by what rules? Barabasi describes simple rules that may have tremendous power.
