What reading level is The Validity of the Religious Experience : a Preliminary Study in the Philosophy of Religion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the claim of the experience is correct, and it opens to us knowledge of a realm beyond the world of sense per- ception, we should treat the impulses which result from it far differently from the fate which would befall them if we regard religion as merely the idle THE SOURCE OF RELIGION 117 dreams of abnormal human beings, or as the insight not into another world, but into the depths of the world of social human life. Our treatment, there- fore, of religion depends on our judgment as to this... unknown factor. We therefore are not able to de- cide as to our attitude toward this experience on its own claims. In our treatment of it, it does not stand on its own feet entirely. This not only makes such an inquiry as we are oigaged in a matter of prac- tical importance, it also brings us face to face with the results of this incompleteness, or lack of clear- ness in the religious experience. As incomplete^ its reality is defective. That is, taken by itself, it is not completely determined.
