What reading level is The Human Mind a Treatise in Mental Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nevertheless, in one sense, the mind is pre-emi- nently active in reproductive thought. In this case, the term 'pas- sive, can signify nothing more than that voluntary activity is either absent, or, at the least, subordinated, to that which is spontaneous.
Phantasy, like our other intellectual powers, never Sole! if?p?om2 works wholly by itself Generally, its operations uonl "^*^^®^^ mingle in that thronging crowd of activities which pass over the track of one's conscious life. Some- times the ...soul is so engaged in the observation of fact, or so absorbed in memories of the past, or so intent upon the solution of some problem, that the contemplation of idealities is excluded; but, when our minds are not thus earnestly pre-occupied, we often entertain ourselves with passing fancies. This especially occurs when one's surroundings naturally suggest similitudes or sup- positions. In a journey through a wild wooded country, strange shapes, to which the phantasy has given a nature not their own, present themselves to the lonely traveler; incidents, adventures, dangers, and escapes, are experienced, which have no nearer re- lation to reality than is to be found in the possibility of their occurrence and in their congruity with surrounding scenes.
