사람들은 누구나 친구, 가족, 동료 및 기타 여러 방식으로 구성된 커다란 사회연결망들 속에 들어있다. 니콜라스 크리스타키스는 행복에서 비만까지 이르는 다양한 특질들이 어떻게 사람들 사이에서 전파되는가에 대한 분석을 통해서, 여러분들의 연결망 속 위치가 어떻게 스스로도 알아차리지 못한 방식으로 삶에 영향을 줄 수 있는지 보여준다.

These sprawling networks act like living organisms, with patterns and benefits that emerge from their complex structure. The architecture of our relationships holds surprising power over health, feelings, and even personal choices.
