What reading level is Elements of Physiology Including Physiological Anatomy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Minister. If the spinal cord of a Frog be divided in its back, above the crural plexus, so as entirely to cut off the nerves of the lower ex- tremities from connexion with the brain, the animal loses all voluntary control over these limbs, and no sign of pain is produced by any injury done to them. But they are not thereby rendered motionless ; for various stimuli applied to the limbs themselves will cause movements in them. Thus if the skin of the foot be pinched, or if a flame be applied to i...t, the leg will be violently retracted. Or, if the cloaca be irritated by a probe, the feet will endeavour to push away the instrument. We have no reason hence to believe, that the animal feels the irritation, or intends to execute these movements in order to escape from it; for motions of a similar kind are exhibited by men, who have suffered injury of the lower part of the spinal cord, and who are utterly unconscious, either of the irritation which their limbs receive, or of the actions which they perform.
