Don't even ask if we have a collection of Chou I books. There are some good ones, many bad, some very bad. The I Ching is not for the faint hearted but it is a storehouse of amazing observations and insights by a people struggling to understand their place IN the univers,e not above it. Here are some of the books we think deserve special attention by interested parties. There are not many. There will be more. But we think quality counts and quantity nods.
#EPH 79 The
Complete I Ching
by
Alfred Huang
252 pages, Hardbound, US $35.00
Without a doubt one of the best translations and complilations of the I Ching on the market today. Huang's story is very interesting. He was introduced into the Ching's deeper meaning while imprisoned. He decided to do his own translation because he found that the Western translations, though good, didn't have enough "hope." He relates his work to previous translators like Wilhelm and Blofeld but gives alternative names for many of the Kua and excellent background on their names and meanings. A very thorough book with much ancillary information that will keep the I Ching enthusiast going for quite some time. Highly recommended.
