Knowledge has been amongst the most powerful of public goods.It has been the inspiration, stimulus and agent upon which most human material, social and personal progress has been built.Access to knowledge, and to the education systems that seek to increase the stock of knowledge of individuals, and thereby, in aggregate, of society, are recognized as human rights (UNESCO, n.d.).4. Science is a special form of knowledge: a formalized approach to knowledge that is rationally explicable, tested against reality, logic and the scrutiny of peers.
