Chapter5The quadratic family

We now focus our attention on the quadratic family:

\begin{equation*} f_c(z)=z^2+c. \end{equation*}

First and foremost, this is a parametrized family of polynomials. We've already discussed both parametrized families in the context of real iteration and polynomials in the context of complex iteration. It might make sense to review some of that material.
