What reading level is Scientific Christianity a Study in the Biology of Character book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It means that if one hundred newly born infants, chosen from the worst surroundings conceivable, from criminal and degraded parents, were transferred at the moment of birth into an environment from which they could obtain nothing but good, that they would in the vast majority of cases develop into average men and women. Why ? Because, as we have seen, the great majority of the characteristics of their parents, good and bad alike, are themselves acquired and not inherited. Under like circum- sta...nces the children will, of course, in their turn acquire these undesirable or desirable traits ; and, as the environment of the child is commonly that of the parents, child and parent tend to be alike. Hence the popular fallacy that so much is inherited. The proverb that ' like produces like ' is true not only of germ-plasm but also of environments. If it were not so, the quest of the social reformer would be absolutely hope- THE MAKING OF A MAN 91 less. As it is, he works largely in the dark b :cause of his ignorance of the principles of here- dity.
