Summary
Fractal geometry is the geometry of the natural world. It mirrors the uneven but real shapes of nature, the world as we actually experience it. We see fractals everywhere, in fact, we are fractal! Using computers, fractal geometry can make precise models of physical structures - from ferns to arteries; from brains to galaxies. Fractal geometry is a new language, and this book is the ideal guide.
