What reading level is A Theory of Life Deduced From the Evolution Philosophy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They are all good, honest citizens, let us assume, except the baker and the milkman, who are fairly dealt by in their transactions with the rest of the community in spite of their own unscrupu- lous practices and their successful attempts to evade their debts. Now, of course, under such circumstances an honest man, the butcher for example, in the case supposed, may easily be made very unhappy ; but to assign his honesty as the efficient cause of his unhappiness would be about as logical as to s...ay that the injury which a careful person might sustain by falling on the sleety pavement of a negligent neighbour was caused by the injured man's prudence in removing the ice from, his own premises. * No, morality is never the direct cause of unhappiiiess. The objection here raised only proves what has already by necessary implication been strongly emphasized, namely, that uniyrsal happiness is dependent on universal morality^ If in an ideal society, which, as we have seen, means a condition of things where the greatest attainable happiness prevails, any one of the units should suddenly lapse from a state of moral perfection, the total sum of happiness would instantly be diminished, and the society would of necessity cease pro tanto to represent the ideal state.
