What reading level is The Mind in the Making; the Relation of Intelligence to Social Reform book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The fun- damental truths in regard to man were assumed to be established once and for all.
The Greek thinkers had had little in the way of authority on which to build, and no incon- siderable number of them frankly confessed that they did not believe that such a thing could exist for the thoroughly sophisticated intelligence. But mediaeval philosophy and science were grounded wholly in authority.
The mediaeval schoolmen turned aside from the hard path of skepticism, long searchings and investig...ation of actual phenomena, and confidently believed that they could find OUR MEDIiEVAL INHERITANCE 127 truth by the easy way of revelation and the elaboration of unquestioned dogmas.
This reliance on authority is a fundamental primitive trait. We have inherited it not only from our mediaeval forefathers, but, like them and through them, from long gen- erations of prehistoric men. We all have a natural tendency to rely upon established beliefs and fixed institutions. This is an expression of our spontaneous confidence in everything that comes to us in an unques- tioned form.
