John Dalton gave chemistry its atoms, and here he applies them element by element: the oxides of gold, silver, mercury, copper, iron and more. This volume of his system tabulates how substances combine in fixed proportions, the idea that reorganized all of chemistry. Read the atomic theory from the hand that first proposed it. Chemistry's foundation, in the founder's own words.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
