Christopher Brinton and Mung Chiang offer an open and accessible
pathway through the complexity of network design and deployment . .
. a readily understood, yet commendably deep, analysis of the
technology and its operation. . . . To describe this book as a
course in digital citizenship would not be to overstate its
importance.
—John Gilbey, Times Higher Education
Christopher Brinton and Mung Chiang both have backgrounds in
electrical engineering, which combined with experience of topics
like big data analytics allows them to strike an authoritative but
accessible tone.
—Dominic Lenton, Engineering and Technology
The Power of Networks is a well-written and engaging book that I
think many readers will find interesting and insightful.
