What reading level is Final Causes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
an idiot in certain circumstances a phrase whose meaning he does not imderstand. Multiply the happy circumstances, and the chances of combination, and see whether it is impossible to refer to chance the formation of an organism resembling ours so as to be taken for it, manifesting entirely similar action, but which would only be a fiction — an automaton in which not a single phenomenon could be discovered having an end, and which would consequently be destitute of all inteUigence. Let a point b...e fixed where, theoretically, the hypothesis of pure automatism would become strictly impos- sible.^ No doubt such a hypothesis shocks common sense, but they protest against the competency of common sense in these matters — the right is refused it of interfering in natural philosophy ; the analogies are found ridiculous which common sense has always recognised between human art and the art of nature. And yet let the attempt be made to find in support of the intelligence of our fellow-men other reasons than those of common sense.
