Beginning with Nobel laureate I. Prigogine's lecture"Entropy Revisited", this book gives a well-balanced surveyon capillarity properties at liquid and solid interfaces. Itapproaches the subject from both the microscopic(statistical mechanics) and the macroscopic (mechanics andthermodynamics) points of view. Experimental aspects andtechnological applications are also presented. The bookaddresses researchers and graduate students of physics andphysical chemistry. | Capillarity Today by G.
