ok, tell us about your general knowledge ?!
as a starter i still recommend the book "chaos" by james gleick from the 80s, its just excellent and a must have
but the mandelbrot is not covered in it----
so, what do you want to know ? what bugs you most ? its endless border ( fractaldimension=2) or its quasi-self-similariy ( until ridiculous depths) or perhaps you like that the shape is uniform and appears from time to time in other forms/fractaös? or perhaps you just want to know that complex multiplication and a scaling, and furthermore that if applied the addition it represents a very beautiful representation of the affine transformations ( that make up the itfs fractals, like the fern scale, rotate, translate

)
and dont be shy
