Sara Wheeler reflects on the harm done by seeing the world only from our own point of view.
"At the heart of both day-to-day thoughtlessness and internecine slaughter lies a failure to see things through the eyes of another. If we all tried to see clearly rather than selectively - well, you know, I think the planet would get on quite a lot better."
