This book covers construction, exploration, analysis, and visualization of complex networks using NetworkX (a Python library), as well as several other Python modules, and Gephi, an interactive environment for network analysts. The book is not an introduction to Python. I assume that you already know the language, at least at the level of a freshman programming course.

The book consists of five parts, each covering specific aspects of complex networks. Each part comes with one or more detailed case studies.

Part I presents an overview of the main Python CNA modules: NetworkX, iGraph, graph-tool, and networkit. It then goes over the construction of very simple networks both programmatically (using NetworkX) and interactively ...
