Critics Review
“This book treats the fractional dimension with ferrid imagination and unremitting passion, and it succeeds in making a good case. It is gratifying to read about a new idea; it happens so rarely.” –Advances in Mathematics (as reviewed from the French version)
“There is a short list of works that display for the mind’s delight the profound role of geometric form in the fabric of the world.. .Fractals: Form. Chance, and Dimension is a fresh addition to that notable shelf” Philip Morrison. Scientific American (as reviewed from the French version)
