included in the second column is the excerpt of the parent page. This excerpt shows all the pages in the same hierarchy level as the one you are watching and you can jump to every other page (and you do not have to klick "back" all over again). Additionally there is a link to the parent page, if you want to go up in the page hierarchy.
