What reading level is The Sociology of the Bible book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is a grave fault of the individual or corporate owner not only, but of society itself, to make more of property than of people, to care more for money than for souls, to ignore the Golden Rule in its application to landlord and tenant. The remedy must be instruction on the value of the house to social welfare, a public opinion leading to a minimum i 174 THE SOCIOLOGY OF THE BIBLE standard of a house for dwelling purposes far above that which now prevails. Every citizen should have a judgment... of the minimum standard of a house for health, decency and family well- being, and so form a healthy public opinion. Within a few years of this twentieth centurj^ much advance has been made in the laws for tenement house building. By the tenement law of 1901 of New York every room must have light and no window must be within twelve feet of the opposite window, and where before 26 families lived on a lot in a five story house now but sixteen familnes could be accommodated. It is claimed the new tene- ment house laws of 1901 and 1902 raised the sanitary condition of the whole city as seen by the fall of the death rate from 20 in 1000 in 1901 to 18 in 1903; but doubtless there were other causes entering also into this good result.
