What reading level is The Harmonies of Nature Or the Unity of Creation book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thus even in this meanest and lowest of all vertebrate animals we find a remarkable adaptation of its construction to its wants, and the proof that it has been as well taken care of by the Creator as the highest members of its class.
RESPIRATION OF EELS. 261 Though the whole breathing apparatus of a fish is comprised in a small compass, its surface if fully extended would occupy a very considerable space that of the common skate, for in- stance, being equal to the whole external surface of the ...human body. This single fact may convince us of the numberless ramifications and convolutions of the gills, and how wonderfully Nature has contrived to multiply within very narrow limits the points of contact between the minute bloodvessels and the aerated water that flows along their sides. It may seem strange that when fishes are taken out of their native element they generally die almost immediately from want of air : such, how- ever, is the case, for the gills being no longer floated out col- lapse, and thus, by preventing the passage of blood through the delicate branchial arteries, put a stop to the circulation as com- pletely as strangulation could do.
