What reading level is Jerome Cardan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cardan had found Colla to be a conceited fool, and had dragged the conceit out of him--a process which he was now aboutto repeat for the benefit of Messer Niccolo Tartaglia. The letter goes onto contradict all Tartaglia's assertions by arguments which do not seementirely convincing, and the case is not made better by the abusivepassages interpolated here and there, and by the demonstration of certainerrors in Tartaglia's book on Artillery. In short a more injudiciousletter could not have been w...ritten by any man hoping to get a favour doneto him by the person addressed.
In the special matter of the problems which he sent to Tartaglia by thebookseller Juan Antonio, Cardan made a beginning of that tricky andcrooked course which he followed too persistently all through thisparticular business. In his letter he maintains with a show of indignationthat he had long known these questions, had known them in fact beforeColla knew how to count ten, implying by these words that he knew how tosolve them, while in reality all he knew about them was the fact that theyexisted.
