Customer Reviews

Never buy hardcovers from this service they just send you the paperback after you pay double the p

Book is great I own another copy I know it well . Problem is that I ordered a hardcover at Double the price. And they sent me the paper back anyway. Would be nice if I could acualy talk to somone about this and negotiate a solution. But that is not gonna happen. So my advice is never buy hardcover on this sight just buy the cheaper paperback that what your going to get anyway.

most readable

The most readable of the translations I've used. My friends ordered it after they saw my copy.

Best I-Ching translation

Is the best translation i have worked with. As is very difficult would be better to accompany it with a more traditional translation. I would appreciate now a smaller version which puts all terms translated together (as a vocabolary) after the text to minimize redundancy

The whole package listed is a work-together package

I have used together all of the listed books, Wilhelm, R.-K., and so on, in a personally directed self-development program for my current life-cylce, i.e., middle-aged and in Crisis, haha, {who among you has not hit the Turning Point and had to examine your life to date and what you wanted to do with what you have left?} and have found that by referrring back and forth to interpret the hexagrams I get, I have "grown up" quite a bit.

the best text i'v used ever on the subject - digestive!!!

i have used the chou for years - but since 1995 - my students, co-users and other practical people concerned - we all share the sheer appreciation of those who can choose and understand. nevertheless, beginners must be led some way a-head.
