Book Description

This is a foundational book on optimisation of network structure, not just function, deriving comprehensible and realistic design principles. Connections are made with optimal mechanical structures, formation of bone structure, and neural, processing and communication networks, including the Internet and the Web. A masterful unification of theory from disparate fields and lessons from nature.
