What reading level is The Problem of Space in Jewish Mediaeval Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Magnitude) wn a INFINITE SPACE IOl of the space-fact itself without regard to its quantitative aspect. This conception of the infinite is novel and inter- esting ; it justifies the possibility of such a notion without involving oneself in numerous antinomies that arise out of a misunderstanding ; and the emphasis that it lays on the idea that the infinite is not merely something greater than the greatest conceivable finite, marks an advance in history of the notion. The reader will note that Pr...ofessor Fullerton recently urged exactly the same point, and on the basis of very much similar arguments. 133 But conception is one thing, and reality another. Such an abstract idea of the infinite is, like all abstractions, a purely mental fact. In reality, everything is limited and can be represented in a definite quantitative form; and 133 See his Conception of the Infinite, ch. 2. I could hardly suspect Professor Fullerton of having read the Mil/jamot, but there is a very famous thinker in the history of modern philosophy who takes a similar view on the meaning of the infinite, and about whom such a suspicion might be ventured, I mean Baruch Spinoza.
