To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Indeed, arithmetic, a very important branch of math ematics, is so necessary to the business calculations of the world, as never to be omitted in any course of instruction, however slight. This, therefore, no the orist, wild as he may be, will ever neglect. But all the elementary parts of mathematics are equally use ful, as a means of education, though not as universally necessary to the wants of mankind. And I lay it down as a fundamental principle, that this science is so accessory to the rec...eived methods of human reasoning; is the foundation of so many arts and sciences, and so interwoven with the various opera tions of society, that its study cannot be wholly omitted in the schools, without destroying nearly all that is solid and valuable in education. Indeed, I cannot conceive of any such thing as an education, in a fair sense, without mathematics. Words, literature, and a certain species of metaphy sics, may be acquired without any direct study of mathematics; but how can any accurate ideas of any thing in nature be obtained without just notions of form, measure, magnitude, and quantity ?
