What reading level is Epicureanism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
According to Epicurus, the only facts of which philosophy can take account are material, tangible things. Mind, if real, is tangible somehow, is a kind of matter. Immaterial mind would be a nonentity. Obviously, however, everything depends on what we mean by matter. The popular conception of matter takes things too concretely, and with too little analysis. It follows the deliverances of the unin- structed senses, which present things as qualitatively distinct from each other. We must go to the ...reason to reconcile and explain the imperfect information thus given by the senses. We must see behind the differences of colour, taste, smell, of vegetable and animal organization, of life and death, into the THE NATURAL WORLD.
97 ultimate something, of which these are only manifes- tations, due to transient and accidental conditions. What, then, is the verdict of the reason, as contrasted with the senses ?
Every body is composed of a greater or smaller number of atoms, or indivisible particles, in various degrees of proximity to each other.
