What reading level is Humanity And Its Problems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is the melancholy condi- tion to which pure individualism reduces a society where circumstances have held the people in subjection for any length of time. Common action in self-defence is impossible. The supe- riority of the noble is measured by the extent to which his power exceeds the power of the indi- vidual. Rebellion of the common people against their tyrants is out of the question. They lack the sense of common interests which can alone 1 66 HUMANITY AND ITS PROBLEMS make possible a...ny continued resistance to authority. The more ardent spirits, powerless against the despot, fly to the woods to swell the army of freebooters who maintain themselves there. The mass of the people are, however, helpless as oxen, chewing the cud in dull content till it pleases their masters to lead them to the slaughter.
This was the general condition to which England was reduced under the Saxon kings. The invading Danes and Normans found a people broken, dispirited, indifferent to liberty, careless of a change of masters.
