What reading level is Towards Social Reform book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Just as the nation was disturbed before 1832 by the pass into which the lavish out-relief had brought the labouring population, the thoughtful are now disturbed at the confusion of principle and the lax administration by which £13, 000, 000 of the public money are annually expended on English paupers.
It is wearisome to write of errors, so it is well no longer to linger on the past, but to endeavour to obtain a new principle and walk in its light. The one I would suggest for consideration might
... be called " the principle of restoration to Indus- trial Efficiency. " To accept such a principle for universal application would require some clearing of the mists of the mind, some destruction of time-honoured distinctions between "deserving" and " undeserving, " some careful probing of the roots of charity, and some close examination of normal human relationships in a civilised com- munity. But it might be interesting to accept the principle for awhile in order to bring to its test the varied classes of paupers who are at present dependent on the State.
