To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Analysis can at best have only a pragmatic justification, for, false though it is, ironically it can serve one finite part of this universe, namely, one organism, in adapting itself to other parts, and in finding out that they are false and that only the whole is true! Why, now, all this subversion of the results of both common sense and science and of much philosophy ? By reason of what are the conclusions of these philosophers reached for they do reason, do use prem- ises, do analyze ? The po...sition, then, as to the nature of wholes, upon which this attack on the possibility of their analysis is based, is shown by only a slight inspection to be nothing more or less than that very theory which the realist finds used so frequently by his opponents, namely, the theory of 'internal relations. ' The attacking party grants that wholes are manifolds and complexes 1 in some sense, but holds that the parts or elements are all constituted by their relations to all other parts in the complex. Briefly, there is a uni- versal interpenetration !
