What reading level is The Problems of Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Consequently, if in the world of reality The Problem of Being 135 as well as in the world of pure thought, the particular gets its nature and its validity from the connected whole in which it appears, it would seem as though Monism were a more fundamental point of view than Pluralism.
But the theory of knowledge shows that reason has its limits. The empiricist and the sceptic will always be able to check the monistic metaphysician, because they can taunt him with the actual limitations of knowl...edge. We cannot even use jact as a criterion in a thoroughgoing manner, or carry out with strictness the distinction be- tween dreaming and reality. With the same right with which we reason from the pos- sibility of rational knowledge to a unifying force in Being, we might, apparently, reason to an irrational power in Being, to a cos- mological principle that prevented the ele- ments of Being from standing in a rationally determinable relation to one another.
But hereupon the monistic party might rejoin that the consideration that the unify- 136 Philosophical Problems ing force does not prevail everywhere, may indicate that Being itself is to be conceived as in process of becoming, of evolving, and that what appears to us as law and order and connection, is the result of a develop- ment in the interior of the existent that is not yet complete.
