A blurb in Scientific American this month referring to a report in the
online edition mentions that studies have uncovered that Chinese and
American students literally view the world differently from each other.
This makes me wonder how much differently those of us of European
descent view the world in general around us from those of Asian descent.
Also is this perception part of the reason why Asia has been given the
reputation of being so hard for Westerners to understand?
Do Westerners and Asians in general misunderstand each other because
of the cultural differences in how we percieve the world?
