Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Physicist and science writer Sidney Perkowitz explores one of the most ordinary yet surprisingly complex forms of matter: foam. Beginning with familiar examples such as cappuccino, beer, shaving cream and soap bubbles, Perkowitz expands the subject into materials science, biology, industrial applications, planetary science and cosmology. The book explains how foam structures occur in foods, natural materials, technological products and the large-scale organization of matter in the universe, using the subject as an accessible introduction to the physics of bubbles, surfaces and cellular structures. Perkowitz himself describes the book as ranging from everyday foam to applications involving space technology and the structure of the cosmos.

The copyright page states "First published in the United States of America in 2000" and carries the full first-printing number line ending in 1. The edition is 194 pages and ISBN 0-8027-1357-2.
