Heaven, Earth, and Man in the Book of Changes

The I Ching, or Book of Changes, was the first of the Five Confucianist Classics and served as the well-spring of both Confucianist and Taoist thought. Following in the tradition of his father, Richard Wilhelm who made the best known and most respected translation of the I Ching, Hellmut Wilhelm here carries forward his inquiry into the significance of the I Ching, both as a manual of divination and as a work of philosophy.
