What reading level is Elements of Political Economy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thus the influ- ence of money, as capital, pervades the whole field of exchange, from centre to circumference, facilitat- ing every transfer, and stimulating to new transfers.
Money, then, is a medium of exchange ; and the question arises in this connection, how much of it is wanted ? Clearly, only so much as will serve the purposes which such a medium is fitted to subserve; there should be enough fairly to mediate between the services actually ready to be exchanged then and there, and also eno...ugh fairly to call out other services, proper and profitable in the then circum- stances of society, and whose only obstacle to a profitable exchange then and there, is the lack of a facilitating medium. All increase of money beyond this point, which the very nature of money itself marks out as the boundary, leads to a diminution in value of every part of it, to a consequent dis- turbance of all existing money contracts, to a uni- versal rise of prices which are illusory and gainless, to unsteadiness and derangement in all legitimate business, and to a spirit of restless enterprise and speculation, which seeks to draw ofl" the excess of money in untried and reckless experiments.
