What reading level is Natural Theology With Illustrative Notes By Henry Lord Brougham And Sir C Bel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The ship rests in equilibrium prepared for passive motion, and the contrivances of the ship-builders are for resisting an external force : whilst in the animal body we perceive securities against the gravi- tation of the })arts, provisions to withstand shocks and injuries from without, at the same time that the frame- work is also calculated to sustain an internal impulse from the muscular force which moves the bones as levers, or, like a hydraulic engine, propels the fluids through the body.
A
...s in things artificially contrived, lightness and mo- tion are balanced against solidity and weight, it is the same in the animal body. A house is built on a foundation immoveable, and the slightest shift of the ground, followed by the ruin of the house, brings no discredit on the builder ; for he proceeds on the cer- tainty of strength from gravitation on a fixed foundation. But a ship is built with reference to motion, to receive an impulse from the wind, and to move through the water. In comjiarison with the fabric founded on the fixed and solid ground, it becomes subjected to new in- fluences, and in projiortion as it is fitted to move rapidly in a light breeze, it is exposed to founder in the storm.
