Wetting Theory

The book provides new insight in the theory of wetting which is of critical importance for the field. The papers in the book are arranged in the order which allows the reader to follow the development of the different parts of the suggested approach (static and dynamics properties of wetting) and how these tools are applied to specific problems.
