To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the especial point here under consideration is the rapidity of biological change. The data on Drosophila are the most extensive. Other cases of change are seen in selective breeding ex- periments undertaken for practical purposes. Some apparently remarkable results have been ob- tained. But it is difficult to tell how much is due to selection and crossing and how much to muta- tion. Selection will of course increase the chances of a mutation in the direction of the selecting. It is question...able whether the idea of rate of biological changes can be expressed any more briefly than has been done in the preceding summarization. 8 THE CORRELATION OF CULTURAL AND BIOLOGICAL CHANGE The particular purpose of our inquiry is to [130] compare the rate of biological change with the rate of cultural change. Comparisons would be more satisfactory if time and quantity units could be found. Realizing these inadequacies in meas- urement and difficulties in conceptions, there does, however, seem to be meaning and truth to the statement that within the last several hundred years the number and rate of cultural changes have been much greater than the number and rate of biological changes.
