What reading level is A Brief History of Modern Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Social statics includes the doctrine of the reciprocal relation of the factors of society, e. G. , ideas, customs and institutions. The business of institutions is simply to regulate whatever has been evolved in the course of unconstrained cooperation. As compared with spon- taneous development, law and the state are of subor- dinate importance, and the concept of law is subordinate to the concept of duty. The concept of duty originates from the individual's consciousness of being a member of t...he social whole. And this consciousness arises at the moment when the solidarity of the himian race is first felt and recognized. Mankind spontaneously follows the social impulse, and only later discovers the advantages which thus accrue. On this point Comte regards Hume and Adam Smith as his predecessors. He discovers the first germs of solidarity in biology: in the sexual instinct and in the instinct to care for offspring. In the realm of mankind there is a constant progressive discipline towards altruism (which term was likewise formulated by Comte).
