It has exerted a living influence in China for three thousand years. First set down in the down of history as a book of oracles, the Book of Changes deepened in meaning when ethical values were attached to the oracular pronouncements; it became a book of wisdom, eventually one of the Five Classics of Confucianism, and provided the common source for both Confucianist and Taoist philosophy. Its central theme, set forth in imagery of singular force and originality, is the continuous change and transformation underlying all existence. The I Ching teaches that these changes come about in accordance with universal lows. Richard Wilhelm's rendering of the I Ching into German, published in 1924, presented it for the first time in a form intelligible to the general reader. Wilhelm was translator of many of the other ancient Chinese works and author of several books on Chinese civilization and philosophy. His long residence in China and close association with its cultural leaders gave him a unique understanding of the text of the I Ching. In the English translation every effort has been made to preserve Wilhelm's pioneering insight into the spirit of the original. This second edition, bound as one volume, contains minor textual corrections and revisions. Joseph Needham, author of Science and Civilization in China, has called it probably the best translation available. Wilhelm, who translated many other ancient Chinese works and wrote several books on Chinese philosophy and civilization, long resided in China, and his close association with its cultural leaders gave him a unique understanding of the text of the I Ching. In the English translation, every effort has been made to preserve Wilhelm's pioneering insight into the spirit of the original.…
