Every day we meet thousands of people on the street.They go about their business, talking to each other. They have the most usual, typical appearance, they do not stand out. But this is only at first glance. How to know, suddenly among passers-by there are people whose IQ is close to 200? This article will tell you about geniuses whose mental abilities are phenomenal.
Обратимся к истории.In the early stages of development, mankind did not have great intellectual abilities. All the ancient people stood at about the same stage of development, so their level of intelligence was almost the same.
The emergence and development of science, culture and religionled to the stratification of society depending on mental abilities. There were so-called geniuses, people who far surpassed their contemporaries in development and abilities.
The notion of "the most intelligent person on earth"was established in the value system of society much later, when studies of the human mind began to deal with scientists. So, according to the conducted researches, children, in whose education the main role is played by parents, and not by any other relatives from the older generations (grandfathers, grandmothers), develop faster than their peers. Most of the abilities are transferred from the mother, and 20% of them depend on the environment in which the child lives and grows.
An interesting fact is the average IQ of women andmen is equal and equal to 120 points, but among the stronger sex there is a greater number of radical manifestations of mental abilities: genius and stupidity.
Determine who deserves the title of "the most intelligentman on earth ", the researchers are helped by the system of tests for the level of IQ. Decipher this abbreviation in Russian translation as follows: it is the coefficient of intellectual development.
Research scientists in this area began with30-ies of the last century. Initially they were not embodied in the test form. These were experiments, the purpose of which was to establish a connection between the human nervous system and various kinds of human responses, the dependence of the mental development of children on the genetic inheritance of their parents.
Later the most intelligent person on earth beganDetermine using special IQ tests. At the present stage of development they consist of various mathematical problems in which it is necessary to determine the regularity and restore the sequence of numbers, to find an "extra" geometric figure that does not fit the given series, and so on.
It should be noted that IQ tests are often notare objective, since they must be calculated for a certain age of the recipient. If there is no indication of age, the test can give false results. It is also believed that such a method of determining the level of intelligence can not provide reliable information also because it contains many similar tasks, the solution of which can be brought to automatism.
Our country has always been famous for gifted people,so it is not surprising that on its expanses a phenomenon was born, the most intelligent person on earth. This is Gregory Perelman. He devoted his life entirely to mathematical research. But its uniqueness is not only in an incredible level of intelligence. This person does not seek fame, so most often refuses journalists in an interview. He does not need bonuses and all recognition of his talent. Perelman does not even care much about his appearance. His main goal is to study mathematics, to calculate complex formulas. This is the cleverest man on earth. His photo can not be found in newspapers, because a true scientist does not need a confession.
It is impossible not to say about who became the presentphenomenon. The smartest person in the world in the history of mankind is an American with Ukrainian roots William Sidis. He was born in 1898 in New York City and struck the people around with extraordinary abilities beginning at the age of one and a half years. In 18 months he managed to read the newspaper "Times", and at the age of eight years already was the author of four books, among which was a serious scientific monograph dedicated to human anatomy.
U.Sidis is one of the youngest students of Harvard, having managed to enter this prestigious educational institution in 11 years. By 1912, the young man had already lectured on higher mathematics in one of the circles of this university. He was expected to have a great future in the field of mathematical research.
But his scientific activity was not limited to mathematics. He is also known as the author of works on history, psychology and cosmogony.
Among the children there are also geniuses whoshow extraordinary talents at an early age. In 2007, thanks to some authoritative tests on the level of intelligence, the most intelligent person on earth - the 3-year-old girl Eliza Tan-Roberts - was identified. She became the youngest member of the Mensa club in the UK since its inception. Her IQ is 156 points, while in the great Albert Einstein this figure is only four units higher.
The smartest man on earth will neverhave difficulty finding a job. Progressive specialists in technical fields are needed by every enterprise, including the military-industrial complexes of different countries.
Another way to build a career for geniuses is to create theoretical treatises, textbooks and monographs intended for the systematization of knowledge from various fields of science.
