What reading level is Fashionable Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You would have somuch to tell, --all your personal experiments, you know; now do.
_Fussle_. Take my advice, Mr Rollestone, and don't. You would have veryfew readers, and those who read you would only sneer at what they wouldcall your crude ideas; and indeed, you will excuse me for saying so, butI am not sure that they would not be right.
_Lord Fondleton_. I quite disagree with you, Mr Fussle. If Rollestonewould write a book which would put a stop to this "religion of thefuture" business, he wou...ld earn the gratitude of society. Do you know, Iam getting rather bored with it.
_Fussle_. Not if he introduced instead a latent force, which shouldoverturn all existing institutions, and revolutionise society--which itwould inevitably have to do if we were all coerced by it into adoptingliterally the ethics of Christianity, instead of merely professing them. Why, the "Sermon on the Mount" alone, practised to the letter, wouldproduce a general destruction. Church and State, and the whole economicsystem upon which society is based, would melt away before it like aniceberg under a tropical sun.
