Vicsek covers the familiar geometric objects like Julia sets and Sierpinski gaskets. The book is not focused on the fancy computer graphics applications. Instead, it looks at scientific phenomena like a hierar|From Scientific American|".... the first comprehensive book devoted entirely to the subject of fractal growth....Vicsek has succeeded in producing a classic book on growth phenomena. It is an extremely readable and useful book and I recommend it highly to anyone
The investigation of phenomena involving fractals has gone through a spectacular development in the last decade. Many physical, technological and biological processes have been shown to be related to and described by objects with non-integer dimensions. The physics of far-from-equilibrium growth phenomena represents one of the most important fields in which fractal geometry is widely applied. During the last couple of years considerable experimental, numerical and theore...
