What reading level is Outlines of Economic Theory book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Broadly defined, economic competition is a struggle for maximum economic com^et«;f^^ ° rewards (minimum sacrifice). On the part of producers, it is an attempt to undersell each other, — to find a 201 202 OUTLINES OF ECONOMIC THEORY profitable way of offering more for less ; on the part of buyers, it is an attempt to obtain most for least ; speaking generally, it is a method by which each member of society gets most from society by rendering largest services. In outworking, it is a defective but... automatic method of apportioning rewards to services, and in a secondary way, in some sort of rough approx- imation, a method of apportioning compensation to sacrifice.
The apportionment is accurate only at the margins. In the absence of the ingenuity which competition has stimulated, the economic progress achieved by the race would hardly have been possible. Each producer, in his attempt to economize productive energies, has helped society to its present measure of economic comfort. Competition, always gravitating toward normal values, serves as a permanent indicator of the point of seemingly most profitable adjustment for all individual interests.
