Ergosophy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ergosophy is a term coined by the scientist Frederick Soddy, in the early 1920s, and refers to aspects of energy in relation to human existence and energy measurement as in (Ergs).[1] Soddy's aim was to apply science theories and ideas and move the human understanding of work beyond the restrictions of management theory into a new theory of energy economics.
Frederick Soddy first used the term in his book on work and economics: The Role of Money.[2]
