What reading level is Scottish Philosophy a Comparison of the Scottish And German Answers to Hume book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Therefore, although we have a cosmos or world before us, that world is not the real world ; it is not the world we set out to know. It is, in part, an effect of the world of real existence ; but we cannot by any conceivable possibility tell how the world of knowledge — which we may henceforth call the phenomenal world — stands related to the world of reality, or, as Kant calls it, the noumenal world. We have vindicated rationality and necessity of con- nection for our universe ; and we have now... a cosmos, or nature, in which science can work.
Rcid and Kant. 1 3 3 But this lias been achieved at a terrible cost. For we have to bear in mind that, without ex- ception, as Kant puts it, the objects we are dealing with are "not things-in-themselves, but the mere play of our ideas, which in the end are merely determinations of the internal sense. " ^ "All objects without exception with which we busy ourselves are in me — that is, are determina- tions or modes of my identical self. " ^ Hence, though it seems paradoxical and absurd to speak of the understanding as prescribing laws a priori to nature, the wonder ceases, according to Kant, if w^e reflect "that this nature is itself nothing but a sum of phenomena — not a thing-in-itself, therefore, but only a number of subjective ideas (eine Menge von Vorstellungen des Gemiiths).^ The subjective derivation of law is, indeed, a matter of course ; for Kant explicitly tells us that, " as mere ideas, [phenomena] are subject to no law of connection except that which the connecting or synthetic faculty prescribes.
