What reading level is Elements of Constructive Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The subjective idealism of Berkeley grew immediately out of the position of Locke ; 1 Of course, Locke owed much to Hobbcs and to the Cambridge Platonists ; ami his general attitude of radical empiricism, which contributed so much to set the tone of subsequent British philosophy, may even be traced back to the two Bacons. But with such purely historical relations we are not here concerned.
2 He adopted some constructive ideas from Descartes, notably the argument for the reality of the self, but
... without their full logical justification. On the other hand, his argument against innate ideas seems to be directed against Herbert, rather than against Descartes.
3 This phrase is not meant to be altogether sarcastic. Locke had, in an eminent degree, the characteristic which is sometimes believed to be specially English, of caring more for truth than for consistency. One is sometimes tempted to admire this quality, in contrast with the readiness to accept the wildest paradoxes for the sake of logical consistency.
