About Author
Benoit Mandelbrot was a renowned mathematician best known for his pioneering work in fractal geometry, which has had profound implications across various scientific fields. He co-authored "The (Mis)Behavior of Markets" with Richard L. Hudson, presenting a novel perspective on financial markets by applying fractal analysis to understand market complexities and anomalies. Mandelbrot's insights challenged traditional economic theories, offering a more dynamic and realistic approach to market behavior.
