Fractal imaging is on the way to doing for images what Shannon did for text and similar one dimensional information streams. The approach of fractal imaging is to find similarities in the image, to express them as a mathematical formula and thus achieve a compression that can be as much as ten to one. Note that there is no image loss or heavy computational overload. The theoretical background is explained by the author in the book and the Fractal Imager Software on the bound-in CD-ROM helps you create interactive Web page images that download fast and look sharp.
