What reading level is The Domestic Practice of Hydropathy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now then, let the reader fix his eye upon the second chamber of the left heart that chamber marked d. Let him remember that it is not square, but that it is a pouch, something like a small India rubber bottle. Let him fancy it full of blood, and that its sides are everywhere contracting upon this contained blood. The blood, thus compressed, will try to escape ; and it will try to escape in a backward direction, as well as in other directions. But, the moment the blood attempts to move in a back...ward direction, the effect will be to close the folding door, or valve. My readers have seen a servant entering a room, with some- thing in each hand. The door is, perhaps, ajar. She pushes it gently open with her foot ; then, having entered, with a backward movement she closes the door by pressing her back against it. Thus, the blood, the moment it assumes a backward movement, closes the door by which it entered. The contraction goes on; and the blood, all egress being denied in any other direction, is compelled to make its exit by the great vessel, the aorta marked L By the same contrivance, and for the same reason, the blood contained in the second chamber, pouch, or ventricle, (marked b} in the right heart, is compelled to flow onward through the pulmonary artery (_/) into and through the lungs.
