Stuart Ballard: Empowerment enhances cognition (1)



"From this increase of intelligence, several effects may be confidently anticipated they will become even less willing than at present to be led and governed, and directed into the way they should go, by the mere authority and prestige of superiors...

John Stuart Mill
