Boys is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work is based on a series of lectures delivered to a juvenile audience, focusing on the physics of soap bubbles and the fundamental forces at play in their formation and behavior. The book aims to engage young minds with simple experiments that illustrate complex principles of physics, making it accessible and intriguing for beginners. The opening of the text sets the stage for an exploration of the wonder and science behind soap bubbles. C. V. Boys introduces the topic by emphasizing the curiosity that bubbles inspire, referencing historical examples of children's play with bubbles. He establishes the purpose of the lectures, encouraging readers to replicate the experiments with readily available materials, and outlining the significance of learning through observation and experimentation. By starting with familiar concepts, he gradually moves toward more complex ideas, aiming to deepen the audience’s appreciation for the science behind everyday phenomena.
