Table of Contents0: Introduction 1: Physics at the Micrometric Scale 2: Hydrodynamics of Microfluidic Systems 3: Diffusion, Mixing,and Seperation in Microsystems 4: The Electrohydrodynamics of Microsystems 5: Microfluidics and Thermal Transfers 6: An Introduction to Microfabrication 7: Some Microfluidic DevicesReviews`In general, I believe engineers will find this book to be more qualitative than they are used to while physical scientists will find the book more quantitative than they are used to in places. Overall, this book fills a need for a discussion of liquid microfluid flows and despite some apparently cultural differences (my inference) resulting in some awkward constructions, I found the book illuminating.' A T Conlisk, Journal of Fluid Mechanics, Vol 570, 2007 `... very timely ... there is a lot of work going on in this area, and I actually think that it will increase over the next few years.' David Weitz, Harvard University `... very satisfactory from a scientific point of view ... telling us why things happen, not just that they do.' Kari Dalnoki-Veress, McMaster University, Hamilton Introduction to Microfluidics is likely to intrigue those interested in commercial devices who wish to peek under the covers to learn more about the fundamentals governing small-scale flows. Sandra M. Troian, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, Physics Today, December 2006.
