This 1998 book describes developments in understanding the formation of complex, disorderly patterns under conditions far from equilibrium. The application of fractal geometry and scaling concepts to the quantitative description and understanding is described. Discussion of self-similar fractals, multi-fractals and scaling methods facilitates applications in the physical sciences.
