He describes how fractals were discovered, how they are formed, and the unique properties different fractals share. 'Fractals' is a breathtaking guided tour of a brand new aesthetic of art, science, and nature. It will revolutionise the way you see the world and your place within it. Fractals are unique patterns left behind by the unpredictable movements -- the chaos -- of the world at work. The branching patterns of trees, the veins in a hand, water twisting out of a running tap - all of these are fractals. Learn to recognise them and you will never again see things in quite the same way.Fractals permeate our lives, appearing in places as tiny as the surface of a virus and as majestic as the Grand Canyon. From ancient tribal peoples to modern painters to the animators ofStar Wars, artists have been captivated by fractals and have utilised them in their work. Computer buffs are wild about fractals as well, for they can be generated on ordinary home computers.InFractals: The Patterns of Chaos, science writer John Briggs uses over 170 illustrations to clearly explain the significance -- and more importantly, the beauty - of fractals.
