To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These events, each and severally and all together, produced in oneparticular the same sort of effect as the use of fire and of the bowand arrow, of pottery, the domestication of animals, and the smeltingof iron: they enhanced incalculably the mastery of man over matter. Butin the other particular characteristic of civilization they acted inthe very opposite direction from all preceding inventions. Instead ofentrenching the master in his monopoly of social power, instead offurthering the differe...ntiation of society into master and man, they allplayed into the hands of the man. For the first time since thebeginning of human evolution, inventions checked the monopolization ofcontrol over others. But the initiative that now flowed to themultitude of nobodies was not that puny freedom and narrow scope ofself-realization which the talking ape had enjoyed. It was theaccumulated foresight and control of the universe outside of man whichhad been storing itself up more and more for ninety thousand years inthe intellects and wills of the favored few.
