The Three Story IntellectThere are one-story intellects, two-story intellects and three-story intellects with skylights.All fact collectors, who have no aim beyond their facts are one-story men. Two-story men compare, reason, generalize, using the labors of the fact collectors as well as their own.
Three story men idealize, imagine, predict……their best illumination comes from above, through the skylight.~ Oliver Wendell Holmes

We need to move towards a
knowledge generating society. The ability to think critically & creatively and to
reason logically
constitute the template for building a society that will be able to not just adopt or adapt borrowed knowledge but that which will be able to
create & market its own knowledge. (Ratnavadivel, 2001)
