Liquid Drops and Globules, Their Formation and Movements Three lectures delivered to popular audiences

"Liquid Drops and Globules, Their Formation and Movements" by Charles R. Darling is a set of lectures from the early 1900s geared to the public that takes a look into how liquid drops act. It shows the many interesting behaviors of liquids, especially how they form and move, based on ideas like surface tension. The book starts by pointing out how common drops are in nature but also how scientifically interesting they are. The author explains that liquids can move and make boundary surfaces. This all leads into experiments and observations that bring the surprising complexity of liquid drops to light.
