• Small Error in TextBook rating: 4

  See page 39, last sentence (and last line of text on the page):
  
  the size of the new triangle will be 1/4, not 1/2, of that of the original triangle, if by size you mean area. The length of the sides of the new triangle will be half the length of the sides of the original triangle... by Barzali

• Visual Introduction to FractalsBook rating: 4

  Fractals can be difficult to wrap your head around and this book did a great job in explaining them to a reader with a basic knowledge of maths.
  
  I found this book to be thought provoking but found that sometimes concepts were not explored deeply enough to provide the reader with the tools to fully understand the concepts and diagrams being presented.
  
  It did however instill a sense of wonder and curiosity that urges the reader to continue on their journey by reading the 'Suggested Readings' at the end.
  
  This book is one that will have a beautiful impact on the way that you view the natural world around you. Highly Recommended. by Meow-Ludo
