Abstract

The beautiful geometric shape of the fractal is called self-similar because it has the same appearance at smaller and smaller scales. It reminds us of fundamental design features like feedback loops that we encounter at many organizational levels of biological systems. Fractals are generated with nonlinear recursive models, and they are discussed with simpler examples in Chapter 4.
