The Ausdehnungslehre of 1862 is Grassmann's mature presentation of his extension theory. The work captured his mathematical achievements. This book includes development of the inner product and its relation to the concept of angle, the 'theory of functions' from the point of view of extension theory, and his contribution to the Pfaff problem.
