What reading level is Rudolf Euckens Philosophy of Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

' Of the profound sincerity of Huxley's defence of our moral and specifically human nature against the self-asserting claims of primitive impulse, there can be no possible doubt. The note struck by the essay is PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE 65 not only ethical but heroic (p. 86) ; ' We are grown men, and must play the man — ' Strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield, cherishing the good that falls in our way, and bearing the evil in and around us with stout hearts set on diminishing it.... ' It is only when the further question is raised as to how this evil is to be diminished that we realize the intrinsic incapacity of an agnostic philosophy to set before the will an adequate goal. That an explicit and theoretical belief in a spiritual principle is not essential to heroic conduct is a commonplace of our human experience, which many a life beside Huxley's would abundantly illustrate. But where the substance of what is spiritual is dissolved into the mist of the unknowable, and neither God nor the foretaste of an immortal destiny is present to sustain the will's belief in its own freedom, there is an inherent restriction set, not, indeed, upon the practical energies of the will, but upon the conception of its ideal and the means for reahzing it.
