Hard Cover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition Thus. Modern translation of Bergman's monumental work, first published in Latin in 1775, "a remarkable summarization and organization of the chemistry of his day", some 75 years before Mendeleev & Meyer published their periodic tables of the chemical elements. Not to be confused with the facsimile reprint of the 1785 English edition published in 1970. In his introduction Schufle discusses Bergman's work and methods, noting that he is little-known in the English-speaking world, partly because most translations of his work into English were scarce & unavailable at the time.

Text clean, no names or marks; xxvii, blank, 112 pages; 5 folding figures (not all of Bergman's figures are here included), index of Latin terms (chemical names in Latin). Size: Small Octavo.
