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

301 aesthetic effect depends in every instance on what the mind associates with an object, or on what the imagin- ation interprets into an object or constructs from it. Not the little faded flower is charming, but the withered hopes it symbolizes make it so attractive.
The discussion of the sphere of the sesthetic emotions has already led us to the second point, which we must now consider more fully ; namely, the conditions of (esthetic appreciation.
The consideration of this point confirms in
...a remark- able degree the correctness of the indicated sphere of the sesthetic emotions. We do not look for sesthetic appreciation where the training has been merely utilis- tic or scientific ; how, then, is it obtained ?
This appreciation is only possible when we rise above the naturalistic and realistic standpoint, into the realm where the imagination moves amid symbols and repre- sentations, and is free to form its own constructions. ^Esthetic appreciation thus depends on a peculiar kind of culture, a culture in the discernment of the repre- sentative element in objects, and also a culture of the feelings which respond to this element.
