Summary

This quote suggests that truth is singular and unified, but errors and misperceptions are plentiful. Despite mankind's efforts to dissect and analyze truth, it can only be fragmented into partial truths.

If non-linear leaps in intelligence and ability are possible

If non-linear leaps in intelligence and ability are possible, why haven't these effects been observed in our schools?
