Many of the distinctive and useful phenomena of soft matter come from its interaction with interfaces. Examples are the peeling of a strip of adhesive tape, the coating of a surface, the curling of a fiber via capillary forces, or the collapse of a porous sponge. These interfacial phenomena are distinct from the intrinsic behavior of a soft material like a gel or a microemulsion. Yet many forms of interfacial phenomena can be understood via common principles validfor many forms of soft matter. Our goal in organizing this school was to give students a grasp of these common principles and their many ramifications and possibilities.The Les Houches Summer School comprised over fifty 90-minute lectures over four weeks. Four four-lecture courses by Howard Stone, Michael Cates, David Nelson and L. Mahadevan served as an anchor for the program. A number of shorter courses and seminars rounded out the school. This volume collects the lecture notes of the school.

As I glance out my window in the early morning, I can see beads of droplets gracing a spider web. The film of dew that has settled on the threads is unstable and breaks up spontaneously into droplets. This phenomenon has implications for the treatment of textile fibers (the process known as "oiling"), glass, and carbon. It is no less important when applying mascara! I take my morning shower. The moment I step out, I dry off by way of evaporation (which makes me feel cold) and by dewetting (the process by which dry areas form spontaneously and expand on my skin). As I rush into my car under a pelting rain, my attention is caught by small drops stuck on my windshield. I also notice larger drops rolling down and others larger still that, like snails, leave behind them a trail of water. I ask myself what the difference is between these rolling drops and grains of sand tumbling down an incline. I wonder why the smallest drops remain stuck. The answers to such questions do help car manufacturers treat the surface of glass and adjust the tilt of windshields.

Prix Nobel de physique 1991, Pierre-Gilles de Gennes a exploré un nombre impressionnant de domaines différents, de la supraconductivité aux cristaux liquides, de la « matière molle » aux polymères et à la mécanique des cellules biologiques. Comme Isaac Newton, à qui l’a comparé le jury Nobel, de Gennes fut un savant d’exception. L’homme lui-même n’était pas moins extraordinaire. Humour, sensibilité, opinions hétérodoxes, insatiable curiosité : il y eut un « style » de Gennes, que restitue fort bien ce livre conçu par trois de ses plus proches collaborateurs. On y perçoit la logique de son parcours de chercheur qui tenta toujours de créer des ponts entre laboratoire et industrie, comme entre science et grand public : à l’instar de Richard Feynman (prix Nobel 1965), Pierre-Gilles de Gennes avait le don de transmettre avec clarté des notions très complexes, et la volonté de rénover l’enseignement des sciences. Françoise Brochard-Wyart est biophysicienne à l’Institut Curie. David Quéré est physicien à l’ESPCI-Paris et à l’École polytechnique. Madeleine Veyssié est physicienne au Collège de France.
