What reading level is Responsibility in Mental Disease book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At the best it is an indulgence which is unnecessary; at the worst, it is a vice which occasions infinite miserj', sin, crime, madness, and disease. Short of the patent and undeniable ills which it is admitted on all hands to produce, it is at the bottom of manifold mischiefs that are never brought directly home to it. How much ill work would not be done, how much good work would be better done, but for its baneful inspiration 1 Each act of crime, each suicide, each outbreak of madness, each di...sease, occasioned by it, means an infinite amount of suffering endured and inflicted before matters have reached that climax. It may of course be said that a moderate consump- tion of alcoholic liquors can do no harm, must on the contrary do good, when exhausted nature feels the need of some stimulant. I am not prepared to say that it does any demonstrable harm, but at the same time it is not wise to have recourse to an alcoholic stimulant when recourse ought to be had to food or rest; and it is a serious harm to the mind to gain, as is some- times done, by the factitious aid of a stimulant, the energy which should come from the calm resolution of a developed will.
