Recenzii
'Overall, SuperFractals would be a superb addition to the bookshelves of any scientists who use fractal analysis techniques in their research, be they physicist, biologist or economist. The author concludes by promising that the introduction of superfractals will revolutionize the way mathematics, physics, biology and art are combined, to produce a unified description of the complex world in which we live. After reading this book I have no doubt he is correct.' J. R. Mureika, Nature
'Each new idea is preceded by an intuitive discussion, often accompanied by examples, and always by gorgeous artwork. The explanation and arguments are very clear and easy to follow, even for someone not accustomed to mathematical texts.' Journal of Statistical Physics
'…I can recommend the book as a nice introduction to the subject of superfractals as well as to the theory of IFS's in general. It is particularly suitable for non-geometrists as well as for non-mathematicians. From my own experience, it serves well as a textbook, also for undergraduate students.' Zentralblatt MATH
'Michael Barnsley is a wonderful guide into the world of Super Fractal geometry. This book will take you on a journey of discovery that will make you look at everyday geometry in a very different way. …a must read for anyone who is interested in the way mathematics can be used to develop understanding in nature.'
