What reading level is On the Method of Zadig book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such a science exists in that application of the principles of biologyto the interpretation of the animal and vegetable remains imbeddedin the rocks which compose the surface of the globe, which is calledPalaeontology.
At no very distant time, the question whether these so-called "fossils, "were really the remains of animals and plants was hotly disputed. Verylearned persons maintained that they were nothing of the kind, but asort of concretion, or crystallisation, which had taken place within ...thestone in which they are found; and which simulated the forms of animaland vegetable life, just as frost on a window-pane imitates vegetation. At the present day, it would probably be impossible to find any saneadvocate of this opinion; and the fact is rather surprising, thatamong the people from whom the circle-squarers, perpetual-motioners, flat-earthed men and the like, are recruited, to say nothing oftable-turners and spirit-rappers, somebody has not perceived the easyavenue to nonsensical notoriety open to any one who will take up thegood old doctrine, that fossils are all _lusus naturae.
