I bought the first edition of this in the early 90's
and was disappointed that it didn't have the Mandelbrot or other complex dynamics
in it. Dr. Edgar has updated the older book with Julias, multifractals
and Superfractals, but has stayed true to his topological measure theory
Hausdorff space approach. He never updates his Biscovitch-Ursell functions
to 2d and 3d parametrics or the unit Mandelbrot cartoon method.
Some of his definitions are still so minimal
that duplicating the fractals needs much more information?!
The text is still the good place to begin, but
it is a shame that Dr. Edgar has not kept up
with many of the developments in the field. Zipf and Per Bak
are left out, but my double V L-system made the index as a picture.
