As important to Chinese civilization as the Bible is to Western
culture, the I Ching or Book of Changes is one of the oldest
treasures of world literature. In this masterful new
interpretation, Jack Balkin returns the I Ching to its rightful
place as a book of wisdom that teaches how to live one's life in a
changing and confusing world. Balkin's comprehensive and perceptive
commentaries highlight a clear, understandable version of the core
text of the I Ching that preserves its striking imagery while
remaining faithful to the long tradition of ethical interpretations
of the work. The Laws of Change: I Ching and the Philosophy of Life
offers the most detailed commentaries available in English on the I
Ching's ethical and philosophical teachings, a comprehensive survey
of different methods of consulting the I Ching, and an excellent
history of the I Ching's transformation from a Bronze Age diviner's
manual to a beloved book of wisdom that lies at the very heart of
Chinese culture. This is an indispensable work for anyone who wants
to understand the I Ching and its history.
