Complex fluids are substances that are neither really liquid nor really solid in the classical sense. They include polymers, colloids, emulsions, forms, gels, liquid crystals, surfacants, and other materials that form flowable microstructures. These substances are important in industries producing polymers, such as plastic packaging, colloids, such as paint, foods, such as ketchup, and consumer products, such as toothpaste or shampoo, as well as countless other products in the petroleum, microelectronics, pharmaceutical, and other industries. This textbook provide both an introduction to these fascinating and important substances and an up-to-date synopsis of the latest advances in understanding the relationship between their structure and flow properties. Similarities and differences among the various types of complex fluids are emphasized. The book is easy to read, lavishly illustrated, and filled with interesting problems, worked examples. and practical applications. With its "trunk and branch" organization of chapters, it is intended to be used as a textbook for a one or two semester graduate-level course in engineering, materials science, or physics, as a monography for academic and industrial researchers, or as a reference book for researchers and educators.

Complex liquids constitute a basic element in modern materials science; their significant features include self-assembly, mesoscale structures, complex dynamics, unusual phases and enormous sensitivity to perturbations. Understanding their nature and properties are a great challenge to modern materials science that demands novel approaches. This book focuses on nonlinear dielectric phenomena, particularly on nonlinear dielectric spectroscopy (NDS), which may be considered a possible successor to broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS). NDS phenomena directly coupled to mesoscale heterogeneity fluctuations, so information obtained in this way is basically complementary to BDS tests. The book also discusses the application of NDS in a set of complex liquid systems: glassy liquids, liquid crystals, liquids with critical point phenomena, and bio-relevant liquids. The complementary application of NDS and BDS may allow the discovery of universal patterns for the whole category of complex liquids. Written by specialists in the field of nonlinear dielectric studies, theoreticians and experimentalists, ranging from solid state physics to biophysics, the book is organized so that it can serve as a basic textbook for a non-experienced reader.
