What reading level is Education for Democracy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These are types and each is superficially light because they are both fundamentally wrong. They are right in the sense that they are what they inevitably must be. Their attitude is ludicrous and at the same time tragic. Furthermore it is fraught with danger. Whenever, through all historic time, those two opposing forces have gone into action, things have happened. It reminds one of the story of the student who when asked what would happen if an irresistible force met an im- movable body replied... that "he didn't just know, but he thought it would knock hell out of things." It is so sad to think that neither the upholder 38 of the old system nor the exponent of the chang- ing order has been able to discover the remedy for his troubles. It is so simple. What is needed is a modification of the two types of the social order until they finally blend into one, and equality — not identity — is established as far as human agency can create it. The alchemy which must be de- pended upon to effect this change is education, not industrial, not vocational, not the scrappy, shal- low, soporific time-killing performance we now dignify by that name, but that training which assists mental development in the direction of truth and the attainment of spiritualness.
