From rain drops impacting a leaf to ants sliding off the slippery rim of a Nepenthes pitcher plant, capillarity and wetting phenomena can be observed everyday and everywhere in nature. The study of capillarity and interfacial phenomena is core to my research career. This was the first book that introduced me to the field in my early years of graduate school, and has continued to inspire my research, which focuses on the study of natural phenomena and the creation of nature-inspired materials.
