What reading level is The Standard of Life And Other Studies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The father who feels himself more mutilated by loss of wife and family than by loss of a limb does so, not because he is specially altruistic, but because his family was a far more vital part of his self than his limb. The loss of reputation, or injury to the social self, is worse to many than the loss of health or injury to the material self. The patriot who sacrifices all private interests to the welfare of his country has subordinated the narrower self to the wider. We no longer, therefore, ...need to teach self-abnegation, but the enlarging of the self, the finding it in wider interests.
Here we are obviously at a point where psychology merges into sociology ; indeed, we cannot draw an)' line between them. Suppose we have two men whose more important interests are the same ; who strive for the same ends, are actuated by the same motives, and respond in the same way to a given stimulus. In so far as this is the case they have a common self, or their interests are so organized as to be correlative to THE PSYCHOLOGY OF SOCIAL PROGRESS 133 each other ; they play into each other in such a way as to supplement and support, so that neither is itself without the other to complete it.
