What reading level is Individuality And Immortality book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We have already seen that we must distinguish several grades of in- dividuality. The life of any animal or plant is limited either by partition, when the single being changes into two, or by death, when it changes into none. Either change may properly be called a loss of individuality, for by the fact of division the concept of an individual is contradicted as strongly as by the fact of death.
Digitized by LjOOQ IC IMMORTALITY 47 But we may, as I have already ex- plained, consider the sum of al...l the generations issuing from the first liv- ing being as a collective individual.
Such a collective being is of course possessed of less individuality,^ but it has increased in duration. Looked at in this way, animate beings arrange themselves into a continuous series with inanimate matter, in which we found exactly the same reciprocal re- lation between individuality and du- ration : the least individualized things, like mass and energy, are the most durable ones, and vice versa. This is indeed quite general.
