Once upon a time a young me noticed that when I spinkled some water on the hot surface of an stove plate the droplets refused to boil and instead they started to move around, but only if the plate was hot enough. Years and years later I was shocked to find that it is actually a well stablished and studied effect, the Leidenfrost effect.
I'm looking for books with a collection of explanaitions for "everyday" physical effects like the aforementioned Leidenfrost effect. Though I'm not looking for overly simplified explanation, I'm looking for books that assume knowledge in basic undergraduate physics. I wonder if such books exist.
