Description

This book attempts to understand processes in motion such as the movement of stars, the ups and downs of the stock market, the changes in weather, the changes chemicals undergo, and the motion of a pendulum. Students are introduced to chaos, fractals and dynamics, three exciting contemporary mathematics topics, through a combination of precalculus mathematics and hands-on computer experimentation that produced graphic images of Julia sets, the Mandelbrot set, and fractals.
