Summary

This quote suggests that our Western perspective is heavily influenced by the scientific approach, which involves dissecting and studying different aspects of a phenomenon separately in order to gain a better understanding.

This scientific attitude has fundamentally influenced our worldview and approach to understanding the world around us.
