What reading level is The Grammar of Science volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I move my hand ; my power to realise this motion depends on my conceiving my hand bounded by a continuous surface. If the physicist tells me that my hand is an aggregation of discrete molecules, then my idea of the motion of the hand is thrown back on the motion of the swarm of molecules. But the same difficulty arises about the individual molecule. I may surmount it by supposing the molecule to be in itself a corporation of atoms, but I cannot conceive the atom's motion unless it be bounded by... a continuous surface or else be a point. The only 1 System of Logic, bk. I. Chap. Iii. That groups of sense-impressions recur in a more or less permanent form is an experience we have every moment of our lives. There is a "permanent possibility of sense-impressions. " We are not forced to assert anything about this possibility residing in a super- sensuous entity matter.
MATTER 277 other way out of the difficulty is to construct the atom of still smaller atoms (and there are certain phenomena presented partly by the spectrum analysis of the gaseous elements, and partly by modern electrical investigations, that might well induce us to believe that the atom cannot be conceived as the ultimate or " prime element of matter ") but what about these smaller atoms, are they geometrical ideals or are they built up of tinier atoms still, and if so where are we to stop ?
