What reading level is Race And History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
!^ It is not another civilization distinct from all the others, and yet real in the same sense that they are. When we speak of world civilization, we have in mind no single period, no single group of men: 44 we are employing an abstract conception, to which we attribute a moral or logical significance — moral, if we are thinking of an aim to be pursued by existing societies; logical, if we are using the one term to cover the common features which analysis may reveal in the different cultures. I...n both cases, we must not shut our eyes to the fact that the concept of world civilization is very sketchy and imperfect, and that its intellectual and emotional content is tenuous. To attempt to assess cultural confribulions with all the weight of count- less centuries behind them, rich with the thoughts and sorrows, hopes and toil of the men and women who brought them into being, by reference to the sole yard-stick of a world civilization which is still a hollow shell, would be greatly to impoverish them, draining away their life-blood and leaving nothing but the bare bones behind.
