What reading level is A History of the Theories of Aether And Electricity From the Age of Descartes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now let these conductors discharge each other ; the electrostatic force at any point of space remains unchanged until the point in question is reached by a wave of disturbance, which is propagated outwards from the conductors with the velocity of light, and which annihilates the field as it passes over it. But this order of events is not reflected in the behaviour of Maxwell's functions ;// and A ; for at the instant of discharge, ^ is everywhere annihilated, and A suddenly acquires a finite va...lue throughout all space.
As the potentials do not possess any physical significance, it is desirable to remove them from the equations. This was afterwards done by Maxwell himself, who* in 1868- proposed to base the electromagnetic theory of light solely on the equations curl H = 47rS, - curl E = B, together with the equations which define S in terms of E, and B in terms of H.
* Phil. Trans, clviii (1868), p. 643 : Maxwell's Scient. Papers, ii, p. 125.
288 Maxwell.
The memoir of 1864 contained an extension of the equations to the case of bodies in motion ; the consideration of which naturally revives the question as to whether the aether is in any degree carried along with a body which moves through it.
