Review # 1 was written on 2008-01-20 00:00:00 Ryan Kron Back in 1987 – before the Internet – this book was an eye- (and mouth-) opener. PCs weren't hardly able to reproduce images like the ones presented in this book. Now the book has become kind of obsolete: The underlying math you can learn from Wikipedia and other sites. The graphics you can make yourself with one of the many free fractal generators (see above and below). But chaos can still look cool, doesn't it?

Review # 2 was written on 2014-12-01 00:00:00 Jamie Kershaw The first major book with pictures of Mandelbrot Set zooming. Articles range from do it yourself (algorithms and coordinates to make Mandelbrot and Julia set images), to meditations on the larger meaning and import of fractals and chaos.
