Polish mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot (1924–2010) coined the term fractal in 1975.
Geometric shapes known as Mandelbrot sets are everywhere in nature, and what is special about them is that many of them repeat themselves on a smaller scale, and then even smaller, often producing a soothing effect.
This does not look like the cold, callous Darwinian world. The real world is full of beauty, regardless of where we look.
