Leipzig, Johann Ambrosius Barth, 1812. Without wrappers. In: "Annalen der Physik und der Physikalischen Chemie. Hrsg. Ludwig Wilhelm Gilbert", Bd. 12 (= Bd. 42 der Reihe), Neuntes Stück. Titlepage to vol. 12. Pp. 1-116 a. 1 engraved plate. (The entire issue offered). Berzelius' paper: pp. 37-89. First German edition of this clas…sic paper in chemistry in which Berzelius presented his system of nomenclature to the scientific world. The paper was first preseted in French "Essay sur la nomenclature chimique" in Journal de Physique the year before (1811)."Of his contributions, moreover, to the development of the atomic theory and the advancement of chemical science, not the least valuable was the introduction of a chemical symbolism which, with slight modifivcations, is in use at the present day. By giving his symbols a quantitative meaning - the symbol of an element representing one atomic proportion by weight - it was possible "to show briefly and clearly the number of elementary atoms in each compound and, after the determination of their relative weights, present the results of each analysis in a si8mple and easely retained manner.". This symbolism was speedily adopted on the Continent but, en England, only after some considerable time."(Findley "A Hundred Year of Chemistry", p. 14). - Holmberg, Bibliografi öfver Berzelius, 1812:7).
