What reading level is The Universities And Investigation An Address Delivered On Founders Day Febr book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Theoretical or abstract knowledge, the kind that investigators in pure science strive for, is merely that which is the most universally valid and applicable; it is therefore at bottom the most practical ; so that if the chief aim of scientific investigation is the attainment of such knowledge, and even if the wish to attain it is often purely instinctive and unreasoned as in fact it is in many of the best investigators we can under- stand from the biological point of view why this should be so.... Thus there is the best of sanctions for the knowledge-seeking tendency. Breadth of knowledge represents a surplus or reserve of potential activity, whether it is actually called upon for use or not; and as such it is the most valuable possession that we can have, for it is the means by which purposes of any kind are rendered capable of realization.
Now let me define a little more fully what scientific men mean by investigation. Under this term come all efforts directed toward the one aim, the ascertainment of the clear, impersonal, 6 THE UNIVERSITIES AND INVESTIGATION and objective truth concerning the matter in hand.
