To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If we 102 A ^PMILOSOPfiY OF SOCIAL PROGRESS intend to keep company with the reformer any longer, we must be prepared to subordinate the biological considerations to others of a very different kind, not to exalt them into the supreme guides of social progress.
CHAPTER IV SOCIETY CONSIDERED AS SUBJECT TO THE LAWS OF MIND WE have now considered social change from two points of view: first, as a result of external pressures ; secondly, as a form of organic adaptation to changing conditions. In both... cases the changes would appear to be necessarily slow ; and in so far as the influences indicated have been dominant, the correspond- ing social changes have been very slow indeed. The patriarchal family, for example, with its institutions and life, and the village community, with its institutions and life, took many centuries to form ; the adjustment of an " organic society " to the conditions of city life requires many generations to complete. But innumerable changes take place far more rapidly than this ; and in modern society change is hastened along every line with a rapidity to which " natural " processes show no parallel.
