What reading level is The Basis of Realism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For take the worst case, that of the action on the mind of sensory objects which affect it causally. They do but give its particular direction to the consciousness which they awake. They do not by themselves create consciousness. Conscious- ness owes its possibility to the organism of which it is a functional quality, not to the object which acts on it. Without the object there would be lao act of consciousness ; but without the organism there would be no consciousness to awake. The individuali...ty of the man consists in the tendencies which precede the action of the object, the tendencies to react upon the object. The apple which I perceive makes me put out my hand to grasp it and eat it. That reaction has with me the character of consciousness, and in the reaction I am aware of the form and taste of the apple.^ The basis of my indivi- duality lies in these tendencies to conscious reaction. Each several reaction in which these tendencies are set a-going implies its object and enriches the individuality.
