What reading level is The Open Court 44, No.890 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The life phenomena of plants, animals and men are also determined by the given conditions ; so are the physiological processes of the brain.
Neurology claims to be as truly a science as physics is. If, in psychology, it is further assumed that our ideas are necessarily connected with material processes in the brain, then even all our thoughts, feelings, will powers, aspirations are determined by the motions of the atoms of the brain. Thus we arrive at the conception of the universal machine of ...nature. Nature, including human life without rest, is a machine or mechanism, in which every motion is necessarily determined by the previous conditions and by the sur- roundings. That in such a machine there is no room for freedom, is self evident, each part of the machine doing what it has to do.
But the question arises, how in such a machine the illusion of freedom could arise. Even if freedom in some form should not exist, the illusion of freedom would still have to be explained on the basis of a mechanistic conception of the universe.
