What reading level is The Diseases of China : Their Causes, Conditions, And Prevalence, Contrasted With Those of Europe book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Our people certainly err greatly in leaving off winter clothes too early, and not putting them on early enough in autumn.
Adjusting dress, according to the vicissitudes of the weather here, in this ever-varying climate, where often "in one monstrous day all seasons mix," is, though difficult, a matter to be carefully attended to if we are to enjoy good health.
One has said that " if we are careful, glass will last as long as iron," and Boerhaave has remarked that " only fools and beggars suffer... from cold ; the latter not being able to pro- cure sufficient clothes — the former not having the sense to wear them." Our dress is rendered utterly unsuitable if almost any part of it be touched. We cannot accommodate it to the varying changes of a variable climate like ours without destroying its harmony in most cases. I need not refer particularly to our errors of dress, some of which have been held up to ridicule,. and deservedly so by the Chinese, such as tight lacing, tight and stiff collars, neckties, sleeves 39 and vests, cravats, tight and hard boots, high heels, the long trailing dresses of the gentler sex, the low necked dresses and short sleeves, or rather no sleeves of evening parties ; a practice, let me add, which cannot be supported by one single argument, and which, coupled with heated rooms, iced drinks, hot beverages, chilly lobbies and halls, and all in our winter weather, is most absurd and is certainly the fruitful cause, sooner or later, of much bronchial and pul- monary mischief.
