The age of big data emphasizes the importance of deriving new insights by transforming data into networks to study their connections. The document introduces a three-step maturity framework for navigating network science, starting with the basics of network construction, moving on to standard metrics, and examining network topology and dynamics. The authors aim to clarify the subject and encourage further exploration, suggesting that while network science may not have all the answers, it offers a critical analytical framework.engNetworks metricsNetworks modelsSocial networks analysisbook part10.1007/978-3-031-75996-3_4
