I Ching

"Consistently eloquent and erudite, this rendition of the I Ching will endure as a classic of the twenty-first century and beyond." --Anthony C. Yu, Carl Darling Buck Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus in Humanities, The University of Chicago

"Readers familiar with the classic Wilhelm/Baynes translation can rest assured that John Minford's new version has surpassed it. . . . It is a work of art. But it is also extremely user-friendly, especially for general readers who wish to consult their fortunes with this book. They will find here, in Minford's many-splendored prose, a largesse of wisdom and sheer mystical power." --Leo Ou-fan Lee, Sin Wai Kin Professor of Chinese Culture, Chinese University of Hong Kong

"A creative masterpiece in itself, this translation by John Minford--one of the foremost cultural intermediaries of our day--throws fresh light on the great Chinese classic of the occult. It is a kind of unholy resurrection, a cable that disappears into the abyss of a darker time. In it the Bronze Age predicts to the Information Age the shadow of what is to come." --Timothy Mo, three-time finalist for the Booker Prize

"A nicely produced book with an enthusiastic spirit and scholarly credentials . . . [It] has a freshness and clarity about it and reads well [and] has the authority of a solid translator with great scholarly experience. [It] should certainly join the small handful of books that are worthy of consulting time and time again." --Yijing Dao
