What reading level is The Contingency of the Laws of Nature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Undoubtedly, considerable probability must be attributed to so fertile an idea ; but, on the other hand, one cannot forget its origin. It is experience that has made us acquainted with figure and motion. It has also enabled us to discover these modes of being in a great number of cases, in which we had no suspicion of their existence. Now, experience cannot prove to us that these properties are inherent in all that is. Since it happens that we are more struck by unexpected facts than by ordinar...y ones, we are inclined always to admit the mechanical substratum we have discovered beneath thinsfs which do not appear susceptible thereof, such as heat and light. Nevertheless, there still exist a considerable number of forms which we cannot reduce to motion, and which do not even seem capable of being found in a movable subject. Such are the intellectual faculties. That movable extension is inherent in being, by right of essential and universal property, remains a hypothesis, in spite of the rôle this idea is capable of holding in science.
