Fractals, Chaos, Power Laws: Minutes from an Infinite Paradise"As notable as the book's broad sweep is the author's good natured, humorous presentation. The willing reader can sit back and enjoy an all encompassing, irrepressibly enthusiastic tour, ranging from psycho physics to quasicrystals, from gambling strategies to Bach concertos, from the construction of Cantor sets to the design of concert halls."

"As notable as the book's broad sweep is the author's good-natured, humorous presentation. The willing reader can sit back and enjoy an all-encompassing, irrepressibly enthusiastic tour, ranging from psycho physics to quasicrystals, from gambling strategies to Bach concertos, from the construction of Cantor sets to the design of concert halls." -- Physics Today"Such a richness of topics and amazing splendor of illustrations " -- Mathematics Magazine
"An inviting exposition for a literate but not highly scientific audience." -- American Mathematical Monthly
This fascinating book explores the connections between chaos theory, physics, biology, and mathematics. Its award-winning computer graphics, optical illusions, and games illustrate the concept of self-similarity, a typical property of fractals. Author Manfred Schroeder -- hailed by Publishers Weekly as a modern Lewis Carroll -- conveys memorable insights in the form of puns and puzzles that relate abstract mathematics to everyday experience.
Excellent entertainment for readers with a grasp of algebra and some calculus, this book forms a fine university-level introduction to fractal math. Eight pages of color images clarify the text, along with numerous black-and-white illustrations.

Very nice shirt for the price
Very nice quality shirt at a great price. Bought it for my son for hoco but he ended up not going so I had to return it. The fit was very comfortable and true to size. It came with cuff links. I would definitely buy it again if we need a dressy shirt for an occasion.

Runs tight
It's a little tight for a 2XL even with the stretch. Nice color, kind of stretchy, nice material, didn't have many wrinkles at all, soft, but was pretty tight.
