Micro/nanotribology as a field is concerned with experimental and
theoretical investigations of processes ranging from atomic and
molecular scales to the microscale, occurring during adhesion,
friction, wear, and thin-film lubrication at sliding surfaces. As a
field it is truly interdisciplinary, but this confronts the
would-be entrant with the difficulty of becoming familiar with the
basic theories and applications: the area is not covered in any
undergraduate or graduate scientific curriculum. The present work
commences with a history of tribology and micro/nanotribology,
followed by discussions of instrumentation, basic theories of
friction, wear and lubrication on nano- to microscales, and their
industrial applications. A variety of research instruments are
covered, including a variety of scanning probe microscopes and
surface force apparatus. Experimental research and modelling are
expertly dealt with, the emphasis throughout being applied aspects.
