Phineas Flynn

In the 1980s, a New Zealand political scientist, James Flynn, noticed that IQ was increasing in all countries, at an average rate about 3 IQ points per decade (Graham, 2001), meaning the average IQ across the world has risen over 1 standard deviation (15 points) since the WWII, predominantly due to environmental effects.

This is why Michelangelo’s David, the Mona Lisa, the automobile, The Beatles, and Pride and Prejudice are all remembered. If it is the first to make an impact, it becomes important.
