Title: A good review of scale invariance and its application
Review: If you are interested in notions of self similarity, fractals, scale invariance and their applications in various fields, this book will give you a good overview of these topics: a collection of articles presented at the CNRS Workshop on "Scale invariance" (Les Houches 1998), it contains 21 lectures related to various aspects of self-similarity and its extensions and its applications in physics, biology and economics.Among others are lecture 2 on wavelet transforms and their use to detect self similarity, lecture 3 on fractional calculus, lecture 5 on properties of stock market data, lecture 12 on scale invariance in earthquake behavior, and lecture 18 on scale invariance in turbulent fluids. Each lecture is written by a group of experts of the field and lectures are concise and to the point. Globally I think the editors have done a good job and the book will be a valuable reference for graduate students and researchers in the field.
