1 $The fractal geometry of nature$	The fractal geometry of nature more books like this by Benoit B Mandelbrot add to wishlist "...a blend of erudition (fascinating and sometimes obscure historical minutiae abound), popularization (mathematical rigor is relegated to appendices) and exposition (the reader need have little knowledge of the fields involved) ...and the illustrations include many superb examples of computer graphics that are works of art in their own right." ... see all copies from $13.50! new only from $23.94! \| signed copies \| SVS
2	The (Mis)Behavior of Markets: A Fractal View of Risk, Ruin, and Reward more books like this by Benoit Mandelbrot, Richard Hudson add to wishlist Mathematical superstar and inventor of fractal geometry, Benoit Mandelbrot, has spent the past forty years studying the underlying mathematics of space and natural patterns. What many of his followers don't realize is that he has also been watching patterns of market change.
