Synopsis

A revolutionary new theory showing how we can predict human behavior-from a radical genius and bestselling author

Can we scientifically predict our future? Scientists and pseudo scientists have been pursuing this mystery for hundreds and perhaps thousands of years. But now, astonishing new research is revealing patterns in human behavior previously thought to be purely random. Precise, orderly, predictable patterns...

In this captivating exploration into the patterns of human behavior, Albert-László Barabási unveils a groundbreaking theory that challenges the notion of randomness. Barabási, a world-renowned expert in the science of networks, delves into the intricacies of our digital world, revealing the extraordinary insights hidden within vast amounts of data. Through the analysis of time-stamped texts, voicemails, and internet searches, Barabasi unravels the precise, predictable bursts of human activity that shape our lives.
