What reading level is The Control of Parenthood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As the population grew, and the law of diminishing returns asserted itself, there came more speeding-up in manu- facture, more exploitation of overseas posses- sions, and more concentration in towns. Meanwhile, improved sanitary and medical science more than doubled the average ex- pectation of life, as compared with the Middle Ages: during the last sixty years the gain has ECONOMIC ASPECTS 63 been from 30 to 35 per cent. So great an improvement in the survival-rate could not be absorbed by inc...reasing trade; for though we had the advantage of a long start, other nations were becoming serious competitors. The "Expansion of England" was necessarily slacking off. So the birth-rate began to fall shortly before 1880, and till the beginning of the war the decline corresponded closely with the fall in the death-rate. The net increase remained at its earlier figure, about i per cent, per annum.
During the nineteenth century, the pressure was partially relieved by emigration, without which this i per cent, increase every year could not have been maintained.
