David Edward Hugh Jones (20 April 1938 – 19 July 2017) was a British chemist and writer, who - under the pen name Daedalus - was the fictional inventor for DREADCO. Jones' columns as Daedalus were published for 38 years, starting weekly in 1964 in ''New Scientist''. He then moved to the journal ''Nature'', and continued to publish until 2002. Columns from these magazines, along with additional comments and implementation sketches, were collected in two books: ''The Inventions of Daedalus: A Compendium of Plausible Schemes'' (1982) and ''The Further Inventions of Daedalus'' (1999).
