Looking For bubble physics university textbook

In summary, the conversation is about finding resources on bubble physics, specifically a classic book by Clive. Recommendations for other textbooks and resources are also requested. Several books are mentioned, including ones on surfactant chemistry, sonoluminescence, and bubbles and foams applied to environmental or astrophysics. The books suggested include "Soft Condensed Matter Science" by Amazon and "Cavitation and Bubble Dynamics" by Brennen.

Hi

I'm doing a project on bubbles, and I'm trying to find resources on bubble physics.
My professor said that there is a classic on by clive, but couldn't remember the details, and I can't find it anywhere. Could anybody help?

Recommendations for any other good textbooks on basic bubble physics would be appreciated

Thanks

what I've figured out is this: its hard getting book recommendations for subjects like this. i myself have trouble finding books on mass transfer for scientists.

if you're interested in surfactant chemistry, thermodynamics and bubble formation, you should look at books in Soft Condensed Matter Science such as this:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/0198505892/?tag=pfamazon01-20

If you want to learn about sonoluminescence you can directly search for that.

If you want to learn about bubbles and foams applied to environmental or astrophysics, then I'm afraid I can't help you.
