More About This Title The Colloidal Domain - Where Physics, Chemistry,Biology and Technology Meet

English

This textbook, written by one of the top chemical engineering and materials science professors in the USA, which showcases colloids in a clear, practical, logical and vivid presentation, will very much ease the teaching of the subject to a whole array of senior undergraduate and graduate students in chemical engineering and technology, and in physical chemistry and related fields. Unlike previous textbooks on colloids, which were organized in a frustrating way by engaging the reader from the start in lengthy discussions of physical techniques, this one takes a straightforward approach by tackling fundamental issues which are then illustrated by the relevant experimental techniques.
