Despite factoring in countless natural, biological and industrial processes, fixed attention on the singular attributes and behaviour of fluids near or at interfaces has been neglected in the surface science literature. This authoritative text assembles and analyses concepts and findings as an inclusive summation of fluid-fluid interfacial phenomena.

A first discussion of instability phenomena driven by the Marangoni effect; excitation of isothermal liquid surface instability by variable force fields; stabilizing influence of high frequency vibrations on the possible instability of an isothermalliquid surface; thermocapillary instability of the free surface of a plane liquid layer; convective instability of a liquid layer with a permeable partition; thermocapillary instability of two-layer systems with liquid-liquid or liquid-gas interfaces;thermocapillary instability in multilayer systems; thermocapillary convection of constrained interfaces; thermocapillary migration of bubbles and drops; spreading and layer breaking driven by the Marangoni effect; parametric wave excitation innonisothermal liquid layers; thermocapillary instability of a liquid interface under the joint action of high frequency vibration and the Marangoni effect.
