Summarizes the basic concepts born in the studies of fractal growth and also presents some of the most important new results for more specialized readers. The book contains 15 colour plates demonstrating the richness of the geometry of fractal patterns.

The book covers systems ranging from flocks of birds to groups of people. Although it focuses on hierarchical collective behavior in general, two aspects pop up in the majority of cases: collective motion and dynamically changing, partially directed networks (and the natural relation between the two).
