What reading level is Luck Or Cunning? book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Darwin; andoverwhelming, again, as is the consideration that Mr. Spencer's mostcrushing argument was allowed by Mr. Darwin to go without reply, still the considerations arising from the discoveries of the lastforty years or so in connection with protoplasm, seem to me almostmore overwhelming still. This evidence proceeds on different linesfrom that adduced by Mr. Spencer, but it points to the sameconclusion, namely, that though luck will avail much if backed bycunning and experience, it is unav...ailing for any permanent resultwithout them. There is an irony which seems almost always to attendon those who maintain that protoplasm is the only living substancewhich ere long points their conclusions the opposite way to thatwhich they desire--in the very last direction, indeed, in which theyof all people in the world would willingly see them pointed.
It may be asked why I should have so strong an objection to seeingprotoplasm as the only living substance, when I find this view souseful to me as tending to substantiate design--which I admit that Ihave as much and as seriously at heart as I can allow myself to haveany matter which, after all, can so little affect daily conduct; Ireply that it is no part of my business to inquire whether this orthat makes for my pet theories or against them; my concern is toinquire whether or no it is borne out by facts, and I find theopinion that protoplasm is the one living substance unstable, inasmuch as it is an attempt to make a halt where no halt can bemade.
