Fractal geometry is a uniquely fascinating area of mathematics,
exhibited in a range of shapes that exist in the natural world,
from a simple broccoli floret to a majestic mountain range. In this
essential primer, mathematician Michael Frame—a close
collaborator with Benoit Mandelbrot, the founder of fractal
geometry—and poet Amelia Urry explore the amazing world of
fractals as they appear in nature, art, medicine, and technology.
Frame and Urry offer new insights into such familiar topics as
measuring fractal complexity by dimension and the life and work of
Mandelbrot. In addition, they delve into less-known areas: fractals
with memory, the Mandelbrot set in four dimensions, fractals in
literature, and more. An inviting introduction to an enthralling
subject, this comprehensive volume is ideal for learning and
teaching.
