What reading level is Matter, Energy, Force, And Work; a Plain Presentation of Fundamental Physical Concepts And of the Vortex-Atom And Other Theories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Leibnitz, strongly supported, held that force should be measured by what we now call the work done, or kinetic energy produced, by its action. The discussion was, however, not one of terminology merely, as might appear from this statement. It involved also the question as to which of these two was the fundamental quantity to be dealt with. In respect to this latter point Leibnitz was, as it now appears, undoubtedly right ; and following him Helmholtz and most of the other prominent physicists d...eal- ing with this subject up to about 1860 used the term force {Kraft) in a sense entirely equivalent to that in which Chap. VIL] ENERGY. 77 energy is now employed. But ultimately, prolonged usage, supported chiefly by the classic writings of Newton, pre- vailed, and the term force was restricted to its present significance. The term energy, first proposed by Young in 1832 as a name for vis viva (MV^), was adopted and is now universally employed to represent what Leibnitz indicated by force {Kraft) as well as the extension of that idea.
