What reading level is Common Sense And the Rudiments of Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The fundamental question for psychology is whether this personality, or " soul " in a non-committal sense, has any individual existence apart from the human organism, or whether the permanence of its various tendencies is simply due to the permanence of certain centres or paths or areas of nervous energy, subsisting in the organic unity of the cerebral substance. To accept the latter alternative for explaining the psychic unity of personality is to reject dualism, with its craving for personal ...immortality, in favour of a form of monism ; but such monism does not necessarily involve mechanistic determinism. The fullest admission of a physiological basis of consciousness does nothing to explain the modes of consciousness as subjectively known, and it is probable that the physiological conditions themselves would not be what they are, were it not for the special character possessed by the concomitant states of consciousness. The relation of consciousness to neural function would thus be parallel to the relation of form to substance in a solid material body ; the form being nothing apart from the substance, yet making all the difference to the mechanical action of the particular solid mass which possesses it.
