To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And then--" Mars was holding out, waiting for Earth to come. What was left of Mars, that is; this one small city of about nine hundred beings. Thecivilization of Mars was older than that of Earth, but it was a dyingone. This was what remained of it: one city, nine hundred people. Theywere waiting for Earth to make contact, for a selfish reason and for anunselfish one. Martian civilization had developed in a quite different direction fromthat of Earth. It had developed no important knowledge of ...the physicalsciences, no technology. But it had developed social sciences to thepoint where there had not been a single crime, let alone a war, onMars for fifty thousand years. And it had developed fully theparapsychological sciences of the mind, which Earth was just beginningto discover. Mars could teach Earth much. How to avoid crime and war to begin with. Beyond those simple things lay telepathy, telekinesis, empathy.... And Earth would, Mars hoped, teach them something even more valuable toMars: how, by science and technology--which it was too late for Mars todevelop now, even if they had the type of minds which would enable themto develop these things--to restore and rehabilitate a dying planet, sothat an otherwise dying race might live and multiply again.
