This book contains a dramatic and revealing translation of this
ancient classic into English. The Chinese original is set
side-by-side with the translation. Two things set this translation
apart from all previous ones. First, archeological findings are
used to uncover the meaning of passages obscured for thousands of
years. Second, it preserves the flavor of the orignal in a poetic
rendition. An introductory part of this book provides the
historical and philosophical background to the I Ching. The story
is told of the ancient Chinese civilization, pointing out events
and figures mentioned in the I Ching. The undisguised face of the I
Ching will appeal to the modern reader, who will read it in his or
her own individual way, as poetry, as discoverer of self, or as
soothsayer. It is in the grand tradition of the I Ching for
different people to see different things. To Confucius, who was
born in 550 B.C., it was a source of ethics.; To Leibnitz, the
eighteenth-century inventor of calculus, it was the essence of
binary mathematics.; To Jung Freud's rival in psychology, it was an
explorer of the unconscious.; To some Wall Streeters, it predicts
the stock market.; As a companion to this book, a computer
software, Huang's I Ching offers computerized consultations of the
I Ching. In the court of Zhou, they used to do this by counting
stalks of the yarrow reed. Results of the court would indicate what
passages to read. In later ages, yarrow-counting was replaced by
coin-tossing, as a ritual closer to people's lifestyle. And now,
the I Ching is ready for the future.
