Social and cultural forces shape almost every aspect of infectious disease transmission in
human populations, as well as our ability to measure, understand, and respond to …

Research on growth of innovations introduced to the market has gradually shifted its focus
from aggregate-level diffusion to exploring how growth is influenced by a given social …

Animal social networks are descriptions of social structure which, aside from their intrinsic
interest for understanding sociality, can have significant bearing across many fields of …

There is a long tradition of using mathematical models to generate insights into the
transmission dynamics of infectious diseases and assess the potential impact of different …

In the face of a novel infectious disease, changing our collective behaviour is critical to
saving lives. One determinant of risk perception and risk behaviour that is often overlooked …

Historically, infectious diseases caused considerable damage to human societies, and they
continue to do so today. To help reduce their impact, mathematical models of disease …

For epidemiologists, evolutionary biologists, and health-care professionals, real-time and
predictive modeling of infectious disease is of growing importance. This book provides a …

Parasites and infectious diseases are everywhere and represent some of the most potent
forces sha** the natural world. They affect almost every aspect imaginable in the life of …

Networks and the epidemiology of directly transmitted infectious diseases are fundamentally
linked. The foundations of epidemiology and early epidemiological models were based on …

Mathematical analysis and modelling is central to infectious disease epidemiology. Here, we
provide an intuitive introduction to the process of disease transmission, how this stochastic …
