What reading level is The Practical Limitations of Historic Precedents book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
True religions take care of themselves. There is something of divine immortality in them. But the social creation is not thus.
Man creates it; he must take care to preserve it, and herein lies the true value of education. Auguste Comte spoke the wisest of words when he said that, " all knowl- edge has prevision for its object." Education, like capi- tal, is valuable for the interest it bears^for the dividends it declares. When it ceases to do this it becomes frightfully bankrupt. Great men are ...simply the trustees of a fund for investment and accumulation, to be applied daily as the profits are realized. The parable of the talents has a profound social and political significance. It means duty to be performed with profit.
It seems ungracious to say that one must unlearn— or rather cease to have much confidence in — much that he has acquired in the process called education, before he can become of real use in the great concerns of life. Of course knowledge is power — we all know that — ^but mere knowledge is not power, it is simply possibility.
