For almost ten years, chaos and fractals have been riding a wave that has enveloped many areas of mathematics and the natural sciences in its power, creativity and expanse. Travelling far beyond the traditional bounds of mathematics and science to popular culture, this wave captures the attention and enthusiasm of a worldwide audience. The fourteen chapters of this book cover the central ideas and concepts of chaos and fractals as well as many related topics, including the Mandelbrot set, Julia sets, cellular automata, L-systems, percolation and strange attractors. Each chapter is closed by a "program" of the chapter which provides computer code for a central experiment.
