“Thus much of our Western thinking is not scientific and objective but is orientated through a one-eyed perspective which reflects the prejudiced values of the West, and which necessarily prevents the enquirer from seeing the full picture. This is equivalent to what Blaut calls 'Eurocentric tunnel history'.32 What happens, then, when we view the world through a more inclusive two-eyed perspective?”

“In sum, when we reveal the larger picture that Eurocentrism obscures, then its pristine picture of Western civilisation - as autonomous, ingenious and morally progressive - appears more like Oscar Wilde's picture of Dorian Gray, whose real image has been hidden away from the viewer.”
