What reading level is The Development of the State Being An Address Delivered to the Students of the book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Two questions leap from it clamouring for defini- tion : ^'What sort of man?" ''What sort of State ? " An unguarded answer to the first ques- tion might land me into Metaphysics or Biology. Fortunately Aristotle's sentence — and that is my text — excludes isolated men. It deals with man only in relation to the State and declares that the nature of his being consists in that relation. The context goes on to say that any 4 THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE man outside that relation must be either a Go...d or a beast. Isolated men, whether God-like or beastly, are akin to the hermit-crab. They occupy, without ceremony or concern, shells, accidentally convenient to them, but congeni- tally evolved by others. The sage and the felon are, politically, cuckoos. I would also exclude abstract Man, that nebulous imperson- ality of metaphysical anthropologists. I dismiss Rousseau's abstract Man, the imaginary creation of eighteenth century dog- matism, with his equally imaginary Rights. The State demands real men who owe to it real duties.
