Chaos and Fractals: The Mathematics Behind the Computer Graphics
By Robert L. Devaney, Kathleen T. AlligoodChaos. Chaos is a much-abused term in dynamical systems. As Phil Holmes has observed, the word has a cataclysmic ring to it, reminiscent of catastrophe theory which suffered so much hyperbole in the early seventies. As Bill Thurston has ...

Chaos and Fractals: A Computer Graphical Journey
By C.A. PickoverThe complexity exhibited by simple formulas correspond to behavior that even mathematicians could not fully appreciate before computers could display the results. Arthur C. Clarke in The Ghost from the Grand Banks notes: In principle ...
