This much-needed text provides a user-friendly, non-technical introduction to the basics of interface and colloid science. Although existing texts cover the basics of colloid and interface science well, they do not extend ideas into concentrated systems. Ideal for beginners and seasoned veterans in the field, this new resource provides guidance on how to apply new ideas to a number of different systems.
