Great start!

I am a great fan of all "...for Beginners" books. Thanks to the great creative illustrations, they make something easy to understand without reducing the content's level of intelligence. Although this book cannot replace the actual Yi Jing (I Ching) text itself (which is at times rather cryptic), it serves a great easy-access starting point to the oracle that has outlived all others. There are also many useful resources online. My next step will be getting a copy of Wilhelm's German translation of the actual Yi Jing.
