This volume is a detailed study of the dynamics of quadratic polynomials from the point of view of symbolic or topological dynamics. It is based on Thurston's theory of quadratic laminations, which give topological models for Julia sets of quadratic polynomials, based on combinatorial data; this theory also gives a model for the Mandelbrot set called `quadratic minor lamination'. The present volume extends these concepts to give a self-contained study of a topological model of Julia sets and of the Mandelbrot set (which are homeomorphic models for locally connected compact sets). Many combinatorial properties of the Mandelbrot set, and many properties of quadratic symbolic dynamics are derived in this model.
