A recent twitter back-and-forth culminated in a request for a discussion of &#8220;bimodal networks&#8221;, and my Networks Demystified series seemed like a perfect place for just [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[History and astronomy are a lot alike. When people claim history couldn&#8217;t possibly be scientific, because how can you do science without direct experimentation, astronomy should be used as an immediate counterexample. Astronomers and historians both view their subjects from great distances; too far to send instruments for direct measurement and experimentation. Things have changed a bit [&#8230;]]]></description>

A few days ago, a discussion arose over twitter involving citation networks, and this post fills the dual purpose of continuing that discussion, and teaching a bit about basic citation analysis.
