What reading level is A Study in Doctrine And Discipline book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

One might believe in the trinitv in its extremcst sense, and still Page Thirty-Five be in touch with the Friendly fundamental, although it may be said more or less ad- visedly, that it is doubtful if any consider- able number of Friends during the first hundred and fifty years of the history of the Society, believed in the personal and mathem-atical trinity.
AS TO PERSONS^ AND SUBSTANCE, In the famous Chancery trial in New Jersey, between the two branches of the Society, following the misnamed
...''separa- tion," as recorded in "Foster's Reports," * we find a considerable statement of doctrine.
Thomas Evans w^as an important witness for the so-called Orthodc-x party, and under- w^ent a searching examination and cross- examination touching doctrine in general and that of the trinity in particular. The questions asked had to do with the ex- istence of ''distinct persons" in the God- head, and the question propounded to * Foster's Reports, Vol. 1, page 292.
Pagb Thirty-Six Thomas Evans was finally answered by him in this manner: "I have already stated that the Society of Friends do not believe that there are distinct and separate persons in the Godhead." He had previously said: "We have always denied that the Deity consisted of distinct and separate persons; and while we have believed that there were three, have as uniformly maintained that those three are one." This is simply a statement of an impersonal trinity, and in- volves an apprehension c-f manifestation rather than substance.
