== Ars Arcanum in each book or series ==
''All of the cosmere stories containing an Ars Arcanum are listed here in rough chronological order.''
=== Elantris ===
The tenth anniversary edition of ''[[Elantris]]'' has an Ars Arcanum that lists all of the [[Aon]]s and their meanings, along with a brief write-up of [[AonDor]]. Other editions do not have an Ars Arcanum.
=== Mistborn ===
=== Warbreaker ===
The Ars Arcanum in ''[[Warbreaker]]'' includes a table showing the abilities granted by the different [[Heightening]]s of [[BioChromatic Breath]].
=== The Stormlight Archive ===
The Ars Arcanum in ''[[The Stormlight Archive]]'' gives detailed information about the [[Ten Essences]], as well as descriptions of the different [[Surge]]s and how they are used by [[Surgebinder]]s. Some information has been added in each book: a [[Lightweaving]] section appears in ''[[Words of Radiance]]'' and ''[[Oathbringer]]'' contains an additional section about [[Soulcasting]].
▲For example, the books in the [[Mistborn trilogy]] each have an Ars Arcanum with the table of [[Metallic Arts]], describing what each of the [[Allomantic]] metals does. The Ars Arcanum in ''[[The Way of Kings]]'' tabulates the gemstones used in [[Surgebinding]].
