What reading level is Evolution in the Past book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And it is not unreasonable to suppose that there had been another diver- gence from the stock in the direction of human beings. If such were the case it may fairly be assumed that these more progressive creatures having possibly developed a taste for meat had gained greater brain power, and were no longer so intimidated by their surroundings as to pass most of their lives in the trees of the forests. Although at first indifferent pedestrians, such individuals, as their walking habits became con...firmed, would tend naturally to assume the erect posture.
There is, however, no satisfactory evidence of such superior PITHEC- animals either in Oligocene or Miocene times ; but it is clear ANTHROPUS from remains found by Eugene Dubois in 1894 in Java that such were living in the latter part of the Pliocene (Pithec- anthropus erectus). These Javan remains are very scanty, consisting only of the upper portion of a skull, a thigh-bone, and three teeth. These are presumably all relics of one in- dividual, that stood probably about five feet in height.
