Models of Science Dynamics [E-Book] : Encounters Between Complexity Theory and Information Sciences / edited by Andrea Scharnhorst, Katy Börner, Peter van den Besselaar.
Models of science dynamics aim to capture the structure and evolution of science. They are developed in an emerging research area in which scholars, scientific institutions and scientific communications become themselves basic objects of research. In order to understand phenomena as diverse as the s...
