Description

This excellent primer and classic work on the topic of soap bubbles and films employs simple experiments to establish a practical basis for the existence and function of surface tension and energy minimization. Experiments require only soap, straws, and bits of rubber to impart profound fundamental concepts related to fluids. 83 illustrations. 1911 edition.

LibraryThing member celephicus
One of the minor classics of popular science. Plenty of excellent demonstrations, with an appendix showing how to do some of the more difficult ones. I particularly like the one where Boys shows how a sound may be amplified by making a stream of water break up into beads.

A classic. Dated but fascinating.

This is a wonderful book. If you ever have to introduce experiments and science to a young person, this is a great place to start.
