"Knowledge is Power" is a phrase that first used by Francis Bacon back in 1597 (1). It is today more than ever this phrase finds itself into every field and every aspect of people's lives. Knowledge is what you know and when you know it and why you know it, and what differentiate you from others who lack this knowledge and put you ahead of them.
