Porcelain TowerWorld Wonder:

Tech Required: Architecture

Production Cost: 625

What it Does: Requires you to Adopt Rationalism. Grants a Free Great Scientist and provides +50% more Science from Research Agreements.

Strategies
This building is very important for a fast Scientific Win, especially if there are a lot of Civs in the game. With completion of the Rationalism tree, you'll get double the Research for any Research Agreements you make with other Civs.

Research Agreements with many Civs at once benefit you a lot. While the competition will get Science beakers too, you'll get the Research for each Civ you've signed an agreement with, thus you can vastly outpace them. This makes having a strong economy important to a Scientific Victory on higher difficulties.

The Free Great Scientist from this Wonder should come early enough that you want to build an academy outside your best Science City as opposed to using him to get instant research points.
