Book Description
The I Ching miraculously guides us to success in every possible situation. This newly revised and expanded edition of Wu Wei's classic is the easiest to grasp, easiest to use and easiest to understand I Ching ever published. If you have ever doubted what action to take in a situation, this book will end that doubt. You will know precisely what action to take to avoid misfortune and acieve success. If you have ever tried to consult the I Ching, only to give up in confusion, you will love this new edition. It contains everything you need to know about the I Ching and how to use it. From Magical Blend magazine: " I have a friend who lived in a cabin by himself for two years and memorized the I Ching. He revered its wisdom that much. You can save yourself the trouble of memorizing, though, by picking up a copy of this newly revised and expanded edition of Wu Wei's version of this timeless classic. Its introduction beautifully explains the philosophical explanation of why this divination system works so well. Additional chapters give its history as well as a pronunciation guide. The meaning of each of the kua, the symbolic configurations, is explained clearly and beautifully. This is a lovely book to have on your shelf and to use whenever you have questions about the mysterious unfolding events in your universe." |

Not quite what I expected 
I have "Zen & The Art of Happiness" so I figured I would love this book just as much. I didn't know it was all about how to tell your fortune with yarrow sticks (which I didn't buy with the book) and not an uplifting read that doesn't require me to buy anything extra.

Yarrow sticks and probability. . . 
Wu Wei appeals to me so much because he is an artist and values learning that comes through the hands. This book includes one of the few explanations I've found for why the yarrow stick method produces a mathematically different "chance" result from the coin toss method. I was inspired enough to go out and harvest my own wild yarrow and cut it into sticks. This ancient Chinese plant actually grows in Maine! Wu Wei's explanation of how to use the sticks is easy to understand and quickly learned. The yarrow stick method produces a kind of indwelling that I have not experienced with coin tossing. It has an earthiness to it that is beautifully complimented by Wu Wei's text.

A great version of the I Ching
This is a really easy to understand and easy to use version of the great Chinese classic. In this astute and practical interpretation, the ancient wisdom of the I Ching has come to life for me. If you're facing a tricky situation and you're not sure what to do, or you just need guidance or confirmation of your inner promptings, I definitely suggest using this practical and profound book to get the guidance you need. It's much easier to understand and apply than many other versions I've looked at. And the cover design is gorgeous.

Wisdom from over 6,000 years ago
I just finished reading The I Ching: The Book of Answers and was most impressed with the author's insightful interpretations of the I Ching's sixty-four hexagrams. The origins of this timeless classic of universal wisdom are thought to date back more than 6,000 years to the great sage Fu Hsi. The I Ching lies at the root of both Confucian and Taoist philosophies. Wu Wei provides perfectly clear, unambiguous direction while remaining completely true to the ancient writings. This newly revised and expanded edition of Wu Wei's classic is unparalleled in its clarity, making this the easiest-to-grasp I Ching on the market. The cover design and packaging with french flaps make this easily the most attractive I Ching available and I'll be giving this to friends as gifts.This is a totally different book from the author's earlier edition and is a delight to read.
