Book List: Social Capital

In my quest to better understand how sociologists view social capital, I visited the library and checked out the following books:

• Structural holes : the social structure of competition Burt, Ronald S.
• Brokerage and closure : an introduction to social capital Burt, Ronald S.
• Applied network analysis : a methodological introduction Burt, Ronald S.
• Social capital : theory and research Lin, Nan
• New social ties : contemporary connections in a fragmented society Chambers, Deborah.
• Complex social networks Vega-Redondo, Fernando.
• Effective small group and team communication Hoover, Judith D. (Judith Davis)
• The role of social capital in development : an empirical assessment Grootaert, Christiaan
  
• Social capital : a theory of social structure and action Lin, Nan
  
• The well-connected community : a networking approach to community development Gilchrist, Alison.
• The Analysis of social interactions : methods, issues, and illustrations Cairns, Robert B.
  

Of course, I won't have time to read all of these books from cover to cover. However, I do plan on reading enough to understand how they define, calculate, and show the presence of social capital.
