To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In dealing with the dry facts of physical and chemical science, there is little opportunity for intellectual bam- boozlement. The investigator is conscious that he is confronted by problems which are only capable of solution by close observation and reasoning ; he is continually finding himself up against hard, unmistakable facts, and if he arrives at conclusions at variance with them, the untenability of his position sooner or later becomes obvious. But when the problem to be investigated is n...o mere physical one, but involves so grave and stupendous an issue as the existence of a life hereafter, the opportunities for self-deception in the case of men of intense feeling are dangerously great. Some believers in Spiritualism have combined excep- tional intellectual powers with a rich emotional endowment, a combination before which I bow in humble admiration, recognizing as I do that true greatness of mind implies something more than the capacity for mechanical thinking. Nevertheless, for all their intellectual wealth I venture to think that these great men have unconsciously been led astray by the very richness and intensity of their emotional endowment.
