The Colours of Infinity: The Beauty, and Power of Fractals
Editorial Reviews
Review
"This profusely illustrated book celebrates the 10th anniversary of the
making of the documentary, with eight essay-like chapters by distinguished
authors. . . . The book comes with a DVD of the documentary itself, still probably the best introduction to the fractal concept. Every aspiring young scientist should see it; indeed so should anyone with a curiosity about their real and virtual environments. Watch the film, then dip into the book." -- New Scientist
Book Description
The world's founders and leaders of Fractal Geometry describe how the science has developed in the ten years since the making of the ground-breaking TV documentary.
