What reading level is The Influence of Scientific Discovery And Invention On Social And Political Prog book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You will at once understand me to re- fer to the art of Printing.
Were human progress a mere result of fortuitous events, and not the necessary operation of a law of mind proceeding from a designing reason, these two discoveries, made about the same time, might be in- scribed in the list of remarkable coincidences. But they belong to no such list. The invention of print- ing, like every other, may be traced from its first rude essays down through a logical series of discov- eries and improvemen...ts, urged on by the conspiring action of the whole humanity, to its last grand re- sult, as the necessary consequence of all that has preceded it. It was necessary that a large portion of the human race should be educated to the use of letters ; that the art of reading and writing should become widely diffused ; the materials for copying cheap, and the demand for copies beyond the ca- pacity of the penman to supply. You may accord- ingly trace the growth, which produced this inven- tion, from the first symbolic painting of thought on rock or tree, by roving savage, to the mnemonic hieroglyphics inscribed on pyramid and temple ; then to characters representing words ; then to those representing syllables ; till the very elements of the human voice at last take representative form in the alphabet.
