This open access book explores the amazing similarity between paths taken by people and many other things in life and its impact on the way we live teach and learn.Offering insights into the new scientific field of paths as part of the science of networks it entertainingly describes the universal nature of paths in large networked structures. It also shows the amazing similarity in the ways humans and other even nonliving things navigate in a complex environment to allow readers to easily grasp how paths emerge in many walks of life and how they are navigated.Pathsampampnbspis based on the authors recent research in the area of paths on networks which points to the possible birth of the new science of paths as a natural consequence and extension of the science of networks.The approach is essentially storybased supported by scientific findings interdisciplinary approaches and at times even philosophical points of view.ampampnbspIt also includes short illustrative anecdotes showing the amazing similarities between realworld paths and discusses their applications in science and everyday life.Pathsampampnbspwill appeal to network scientists and to anyone interested in popular science. By helping readers to step away from the networked view of many recent popular scientific books and start to think of longer paths instead of individual links it sheds light on these problems from a genuinely new perspective. The path is the goal.
