Mathematical symmetry and chaos come together to form striking,
beautiful colour images throughout this impressive work, which
addresses how the dynamics of complexity can produce familiar
universal patterns. The book, a richly illustrated blend of
mathematics and art, was widely hailed in publications as diverse
as the New York Review of Books, Scientific American, and Science
when first published in 1992. This much-anticipated second edition
features many new illustrations and addresses the progress made in
the mathematics and science underlying symmetric chaos in recent
years; for example, the classifications of attractor symmetries and
methods for determining the symmetries of higher dimensional
analogues of images in the book. In particular, the concept of
patterns on average and their occurrence in the Faraday fluid
dynamics experiment is described in a revised introductory chapter.
The ideas addressed in this book have been featured at various
conferences on intersections between art and mathematics, including
the annual Bridges conference, and in lectures to art students at
the University of Houston.
