Network science offers a means to understand and analyze complex systems that involve various types of relationships. This text bridges the gap between theoretical understanding and practical application, making network science more accessible to a wide range of users. It presents the statistical models pertaining to individual network techniques, followed by empirical applications that use both built-in and user-written packages, and reveals the mathematical and statistical foundations of each model, along with demonstrations involving calculations and step-by-step code implementation. In addition, each chapter is complemented by a case study that illustrates one of the several techniques discussed.
