What reading level is The Premises of Political Economy; Being a Re-Examination of Certain Fundamental Principles of Economic Science book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


From this or any other correct method it would be readily seen that the average return for all labor in newly-settled countries is much lower than the average return from those older countries where much use is made of capital to remove the obstacles to cultivation.
In this case most of the land in the country can be tilled, and the advantage of a large population is ob- tained along with an increase of the average return for all labor.
Mill, howevei", asserts that a rise in price of agricul- t
...ural produce is of itself sufficient evidence that the average return for labor has diminished, and in his chapter on the increase of production from land he says,— " Now the most elementary truths of political econ- omy show that this (the rise in price of agricultural produce) could not happen, unless the cost of produc- tion, measured in labor, of those products tended to rise. If the application of additional labor to the land was, as a general rule, attended with an increase in the proportional return, the price of produce, instead of rising, must necessarily fall as society advances.
