***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org ***** Charles Kadushin : Making Connections: Network Theory, Concepts and Findings, Oxford University Press, will be out in 2011. It had a chapter on network history but in view of the many other good treatments and a lack of space I dropped it. If you request it, I can send you the draft. One of the interesting things I discovered while writing it is that even though people in the network field, as compared with some others, have unusually good and collegial relations with one another, possibly because we ourselves started as an informal network (INSNA's original principle of management was "trust me"), every history of the field is a political statement that is bound to exalt some and offend others. The outpouring of suggested sources for histories will bear this out. On 7/10/2010 8:58 AM, Barry Wellman wrote: > ***** To join INSNA, visit http://www.insna.org ***** > > 1.
