The most important problem in kinetics of wetting and spreading from the author's point of view is a consideration of combined surface forces and capillary action in a vicinity of the apparent three phase contact line. The latter is equally important at the consideration of static or dynamics. Other current trends in kinetics of wetting and spreading are also briefly reviewed. It is impossible to cover the whole literature on the subject: it was around 5000 publications on that subject in 2009 only and the total number of publication in the area is 65,917 (according to Science Direct). The problems to be solved in the area are marked in italic bold and underlined.
