Editorial Review Product Description Petit Point is not a book to be devoured in a single sitting. It is one to be savored and reflected upon — it shows what the world may be like and what we ourselves may become. It is like a mirror — to be visited from time to time. Customer Reviews (1)

Editorial Review Product Description About the Authors:P.G. de Gennes was born in Paris, France. He studied physics at the École Normale, receiving his Ph.D. in 1957, at the Atomic Energy Center in Saclay, where he worked with A. Abragam and J. Friedel, and at the University of California, Berkeley, working with C. Kittel. His early research concerned neutron scattering and magnetism. After serving in the French Navy he returned to physics research, at the CNRS in Orsay, where he started the group on superconductors; in 1971 he became a Professor at the Collège de France. His research turned to soft matter in 1968, when he began to study liquid crystals; he has since also worked on problems of polymer physics, the dynamics of wetting, and the physical chemistry of adhesion. Among his many honors are: The Nobel Prize for Physics, the Wolf Prize (Israel), and the Holweck and Ampère prizes (British and French Physical Societies).J. Badoz was also born in Paris; he studied at the École Supérieure de Physique et Chimie in Paris, obtaining his PhD in 1957. He continued his researches first at the CNRS, and since 1963 at the École Supérieure de Physique et Chimie; since 1972 he has been the school's scientific director. His research has chiefly focused on the interactions of light and condensed matter, an particularly on polarization phenomena. FROM THE REVIEWS: PHYSICS TODAY"Reading the book can be compared to strolling through a magnificent garden of fragile objects. DeGennes gently guides the reader past the beautiful landscape of soft matter and tells us how it was uncovered. We see many colorful examples of fragile objects that help us understand the unusual properties of these mysterious forms of matter...I immensely enjoyed reading FRAGILE OBJECTS and intend to use many of its examples in my lectures. I highly recommend it to any reader who is interested in condensed matter physics and science at large." |

Editorial Review Product Description Customer Reviews (1)
Bible for liquid crystals! To get a simple understanding of liquid crystals (without chemical and mathematical equations), a text by Peter J. Collins (Liquid Crystals: Nature's delicate phase of matter) is highly recommended. For people interested in synthesis of liquid crystals, this text has almost nothing to offer and maybe another text by Collins is more useful. Another important text on the physics of liquid crystals is by Chandershekar. But bottomline is while you may want to look at other texts for specific needs (synthesis or display devices), The Physics of Liquid Crystals by de Gennes is the book one must have and one must read to make a living in this area. (of course, I will read the whole text too....) ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description The study of capillarity is in the midst of a veritable explosion. What is offered here is not a comprehensive review of the latest research but rather a compendium of principles designed for the undergraduate student and for readers interested in the physics underlying these phenomena.
