Abstract

We introduce ideas from network and graph theory and apply them to the evolution and network of contributions of the steam engine. Also discussed are models of growth of social networks, exponential growth and the ’S’ curve. This chapter also reviews earlier work on evolution, diffusion and networks of innovation.
