Understanding the processes behind the evolution of complex networks is a key objective in network science. An effective framework for tackling this challenge is network model selection, which involves finding the model from a set of candidates that best explains a given network. This book is a systematic review of methods for this purpose. Each method is outlined in three parts: its core principle (used to organize methods into four categories), other relevant details including my own observations, and software availability. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in network model selection and concludes by exploring future directions. A unified, optimal method could identify the mechanisms that shape real-world networks more precisely than any current approach. This work represents the first step toward developing such an optimal method. It will be a valuable resource for students and researchers in network science.
