What reading level is The Riddle of the Universe; Being An Attempt to Determine the First Principles of Metaphysic, Considered As An Inquiry Into the Conditions And Import of Consciousness book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But whatever the solution may be, we must bear in mind that at any rate the vast majority of phenomena are easily enough re-readable on the hypothesis of interpenetrations. The question that remains over is that touching the manner in which this interpenetration is to be conceived.
Formation of an adequate mental picture of the process is, of course, out of the question. A " picture " means here an image of the visual imagination, and not merely empiri- cally known visual pictures, but every mo...de of our waking subjective life has to be explained. Take, however, the case of atomic repulsions. Matter is not compressible, as we know, to such a degree as to ostracize it completely from space. This incompressibility means that the atomic inter- penetrative monads will not permit invasions which threaten their lives {i.e. their more overt self-realization or manifesta- tion), beyond a certain limit. Penetration by hostile monads (or by monads whose partial penetration may be beneficent, but whose full presence is burdensome) carries with it repressed activities, repressed activities involve pain, and the repulsion of the invader is the diversion of the repressed energies to self- defence, these being dammed up to such a degree as finally to menace the invader itself with obscuration and its heralding pains.
