What reading level is Pluriverse; An Essay in the Philosophy of Pluralism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But if the wheel moves, while in con- tact with the motionless track, the wheel would grind the track ; but now a changing particle of the wheel at the bottom serves as a pivot for the motion of the other particles. Strip off the rim of a wheel and roll it on its spoke: we see at once that each spoke holds its position on the track until the next spoke comes down. If the wheel were lifted from the track and then revolved, this motionless part would fly to the centre and the other parts would go... up and down and right and left around it; set the wheel upon the track again, and then the forward moving centre assumes also the backward motion of the bottom, the top doubles its speed, and the bottom is as still as the track.
But stillness, and centre, and bottom are all gen- eral ideas, which refuse sensible expression. Is there a bottom or a centre of a wheel, as a material thing? Or are these conceptions in the mind only? Surely the latter. The perimeter of the wheel is a curve, IDEALISM 49 and no section of it can be so short but it will curve up from the track and present the anomaly of being both top and bottom; and no portion of the wheel can be so small as to be wholly a centre, but if sens- ible it will be so large as to have an ideal centre of its own.
