What reading level is Evolution And the War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the comparison does not bear close examination. The necessity of eating and the peril of being eaten are associated with much that is wonderful in the instincts and apparatus of the animal kingdom, with the develop- ment of courage and cunning, of alert senses, of muscle and bone, armour and weapons, eyes and ears and nose, touch and taste, colouration and form. But from the lower to the higher animals, there has been a gradual replacement of a general unintelligent ferocity, ready to grasp... at everything, friend or foe, that seems a possible food, to a more specialized, more competent and at the same time more limited instinct that comes into action only at the necessary call of hunger, and only with regard to the normal prey. I suppose that the large carnivora, such as Uons, tigers and bears, are the highest examples of ferocious animals. They, however, are not ferocious (apart from fear and sex) except when they are hungry. Apparent exceptions are old lions and tigers, and possibly a few species such as polar bears.
