What reading level is Applied Eugenics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The small influence of one of these remote ancestors may be seen at a glance, if a chart of all the ancestors up to the generation of the great hero is made. Following out the illus- tration, a pedigree based on George Washington would look like the diagram in Fig. 41. In more remote generations, the prob- able biological influence of the ancestor becomes practically nil. Thus Americans who trace their descent to some royal personage of England or the Continent, a dozen generations ago, may get... a certain amount of spiritual satisfaction out of the relationship, but they certainly can derive little real help, of a 338 APPLIED EUGENICS hereditary kind, from this ancestor. And when one goes farther back, as to William the Conqueror, who seems to rank with the Mayflower immigrants as a progenitor of many descendants the claim of descent becomes really a joke. If 24 generations have elapsed between the present and the time of William the Conqueror, every individual living to-day must have had living in the epoch of the Norman conquest not less than sixteen mil- lion ancestors.
