Description: The authors present an unusual attempt to publicize the field of Complex Dynamics, an exciting mathematical discipline of respectable tradition that recently sprang into new life under the impact of modern computer graphics. Where previous generations of scientists had to develop their own inner eye to perceive the abstract aesthetics of their work, the astounding pictures assembled here invite the reader to share in a new mathematical experience, to revel in the charm of fractal frontiers.
