To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Literature, art, science, morality and religion which are, according to this view, secreted by the mind, are on the same level as gastric juices, which are secreted by the stomach. Those who speak of thought as a function of the brain, in the sense that bile is the function of the liver, and gastric juice a function of the stomach, teach that thought is actually produced by the brain. It cannot be that the thought we see embodied in civilization with all its institutions, laws, literature, art ...and science is only the exudation of brain atoms. It cannot be that material brain molecules secreted, as the liver secretes bile, the Pyramids, the temple of Diana, the statue of Moses, the paintings in the Sistine chapel, Handel's Messiah, the epistles of St. Paul, St. Augustine's City of God and Emerson's essays. The thought man has used to change the face of nature, to bridge its rivers, to tunnel its mountains, and to cross with iron rails its con- tinents, has not been distilled out of perishing nerves, but has been discovered in the things God has made and transcribed into the human mind and embodied in the achievements of God's child.
