This book is devoted to the rapidly growing area of science
dealing with structure and properties of biological surfaces in
their relation to particular function(s). This volume, written by a
team of specialists from different disciplines, covers various
surface functions such as protection, defense, water transport,
anti-wetting, self cleaning, light reflection and scattering, and
acoustics. Because biological surfaces have a virtually endless
potential of technological ideas for the development of new
materials and systems, inspirations from biology could also be
interesting for a broad range of topics in surface engineering.
