Heaven, Earth, and Man in the Book of Changes Hellmut Wilhelm 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. "Hellmut Wilhelm deserves grateful thanks for bringing to the fore some of the basic ideas of the book."--Times Literary Supplement March (orig. pub. 1977). 248 pp., index, LC 76-7801, 6" x 9" |
