What reading level is The Mind in the Making book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nothing is more essential in our attempt to escape from the bondage ofconsecrated ideas than to get a vivid notion of human achievement inits proper historical perspective. In order to do this let us imaginethe whole gradual and laborious attainments of mankind compressed intothe compass of a single lifetime. Let us assume that a singlegeneration of men have in fifty years managed to accumulate all thatnow passes for civilization. They would have to start, as allindividuals do, absolutely unciv...ilized, and their task would be torecapitulate what has occupied the race for, let us guess, at leastfive hundred thousand years. Each year in the life of a generationwould therefore correspond to ten thousand years in the progress ofthe race.
On this scale it would require forty-nine years to reach a point ofintelligence which would enable our self-taught generation to give uptheir ancient and inveterate habits of wandering hunters and settledown here and there to till the ground, harvest their crops, domesticate animals, and weave their rough garments.
