What reading level is War Science And Civilization book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Whatever and howsoever many causes there may be contributing to organic evo- lution, there is no question as to the stupendous " go " of it. Colonel Clark's squash that was found able to lift five thousand pounds by its growth power, is now known to have been in no wise exceptionally strong. Professor George E. Stone has lately (Popular Science Monthly, September, 1913) told of his observations on a black birch, " one root of which has entered a fissure in a large boulder and is slowly but con-... 77 stantly lifting this enormous weight. " Meas- urements and specific gravity determinations on the boulder, he tells us, find it to weigh eighteen tons. There are now on record careful meas- urements of the growth force of many kinds of plants, but unfortunately none or very few on animals. A study of the strength of the band- ages required to prevent the Chinese girls' feet from growing would be instructive; but I have not been able to find that such a study has been made.
It is certain that a portion of this power of growing plants and animals is due to such well- known physical forces as osmosis, capillarity, and surface tension.
