A fascinating but easy to follow guide to the world of fractals and cellular automata. This book was recommended to me by one of the country's leading mathematicians when I was first attempting to understand fractals.

I appreciated this book for how it got me to think about things I never spend time on. What is the definition of 'symmetry' and 'chaos'? Why do train wheels tend to move laterally? Why do people like those spiral wishing well coin funnels? I didn't understand a word of the mathematics, but it's an engaging book nonetheless.
