The textbook seeks to bring readers with no prior knowledge
or experience in interfacial phenomena, colloid science or nanoscience
to the point where they can comfortably enter the current scientific
and technical literature in the area.
Designed as a pedagogical tool, this book recognizes the
cross-disciplinary nature of the subject. To facilitate learning, the
topics are developed from the beginning with ample cross-referencing.
The understanding of concepts is enhanced by clear descriptions of
experiments and provisions of figures and illustrations.
