What reading level is Our Medicine Men book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But this fellow who has a better time is no longer con-* demned as a transgressor of the laws of God: he is looked upon rather as an offender against the new sacred laws of health.
The neo-Puritan exponents of public health frown upon the bacchanalia that are as old as the life of man. These festivals are without doubt [132] RELIGIO SANITATIS expression of his joy in life, and are the symbols of a gay and impudent nose-thumbing at the irrevocable and cruel tragedies of senescence and death, the... implacable ironic enemies of human kind. The Messiahs of sanitation forget that such carnivals were very prevalent in the healthy Dionysian periods of Greek civilization. They ignore the mighty achievements and incompar- able salubrity of their Norse, Danish, and Saxon forefathers, who drank lustily all night and fought valorously the next day. They deprecate the importance of the fruit of the vine in the productive and creative activities of old France.
They refuse to consider the beer-bibbing that went hand in hand with the Teutonic creation of the priceless treasure of music.
