he economic concept of networks refers to the structure of agents` interaction as well as to the economic property of positive externalities. This book describes the economics of networks from various perspectives among which are¤ classical approaches, methods derived from physics, theory of...

The main underlining conviction, throughout the book, is the importance of dynamical and systemic approaches to innovation policies. The first part of the book provides the theoretical background for the subsequent more empirical contributions. In the second part, a series of three papers...

The patterns of innovation diffusion are well approximated by the logistic curves. This is the robust empirical fact confirmed by many studies in innovations dynamics. Here we show that the logistic pattern of innovation diffusion can be replicated by the time-dependent stochastic process with...
