What reading level is The Basis of Social Relations; a Study in Ethnic Psychology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The most conservative student of prehistoric records would not estimate the life of our 78 ETHNIC PSYCHOLOGY species at less than fifty thousand years, and it is much more Hkely to be double that duration.
The date of anything like civilisation is much more recent. Even in its oldest centres, as Egypt or Babylonia, to place its beginning ten thousand years ago is to exceed the demands of the boldest anti- quary ; while over most of the now civilised areas of the globe a condition of barbarism p...revailed until less than two thousand years ago.

' I. By arithmetical progession (addition).
