What reading level is Dissertations On Leading Philosophical Topics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Yet, this narrowness needs to be fought against. A pupil should not be left to his own choice as to what is ultimately for his good on the whole. Even Genius, to be effective, must condescend to learn many things that are dry and unattractive. An anecdote in recent circulation is in point here. Mr. Gladstone, it is said, when at Oxford, intended to devote himself to Classics exclusively. His father, on the other hand, urged that he should take up Mathematics likewise; which he did, and thereby ...laid the foundation of his success as financier, besides reaping other valuable fruits. As another example, I may refer to Mill's deliberate opinion, given in his Auto- biography, that every youth needs to be under wholesome compulsion to learn many things that he has no natural liking for. The moral of all this is that every curriculum of liberal study should, by its width, secure an amount of culture far beyond the individual likings of the very best pupils ; while an adequate examination should make this a sine qua non of a University, or other, stamp of intellectual proficiency.
