What reading level is The Anatomy of Society book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A great discoverer is unintelligible to his contem- poraries, but it is always possible for them to appreciate the tradition that has made his work possible. The tradition of science and art is a far greater thing than any national tradition.
Digitized by VjOOQIC 186 THE ANATOMY OF SOCIETY and it is in this that children should be edu- cated, for without understanding of the great- er there can be no true appreciation of the less.
If, for instance, there was ever a true King of England his name... was William phake^ speare; and President Wilson, in speaking nobly for America, is the mouthpiece of Walt Whitman. The destiny of humanity is shaped by vision, not by Law, which should be the means by which the vision is expressed in daily life. Laws which subserve the purposes of temporal power thwart the operation of vision and injure daily Hfe, lead to the destruction of imagination, and blight the hopes of the fu- ture. Vision and the pressure of daily life lead slowly to inventions which the generations are apt to regard as their sole unaided work, but, as we have seen, no work is unaided, all work is done in common, and all work depends upon that of the community of artists and scientists, where there is emulation but no competition.
