What reading level is The Study of the Atom Or the Foundation of Chemistry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

L, avoisier spoke of the compounds of nitrogen and oxy- gen as the two steps of saturation. Proust, in his dis- cussion with Berthollet, had proved that such compounds were definite in composition and that the proportions differed by leaps, as it were, and not by continuous change. Richter had shown that iron and mercury could combine with oxygen in several proportions so as to form several oxides. Furthermore, it was already customary to state the composition of compounds which contained the s...ame elements in different proportions by giving one element in a fixed proportion and varying the proportions of the second element. This being the case it would seem at first sight impossible to fail to detect the simple ratio existing between the latter proportions, but the truth is, the analyses were too faulty to show this relation. Thus Proust, one of the most careful and accurate chemists of his day, stated that 100 parts of copper combined with i7^i to 1 8 parts of oxygen to form the red oxide and with 25 parts to form the black oxide.
