What reading level is The Psychology of Thinking book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Much current psychology makes percepts the basis of concepts, but, failing to distinguish between psychological and logical concepts, proceeds to" formulate the psychology of the logical concept as if percepts were the basis of logical concepts. We have already seen that it is a fundamental and inherent tendency of mind to generalize. Given a cer- tain amount of perceptual experience, using the term per- ception' roughly to include all first-hand experiences with things, and the mind of the chi...ld will inevitably form some sort of working general notions as the result of^ its own spontaneous activities and tendencies. The mind is made that way, and nothing could prevent it from a certain amount of generalizing, in spite of insufficiency of data.
It is simply not true that the child gets only individual notions from his percepts, or concrete experiences. If he did get only a lot of isolated individual facts, which later he had to compare and from which he had to abstract common qualities as the basis of generalization, whence would arise the problems that would impel him to go through with such a process of reconstruction of experience ?
