This is a superb collection of insights taken from the I Ching. I have enjoyed all of Wu Wei's works on The Book of Changes, but this is my favorite. Many times, I have randomly turned to a passage and found that it helped me with my current predicament. I highly recommend this book.

This review is from: I Ching Wisdom Volume One: Guidance from the Book of Answers (Paperback)

In the tradition of great Chinese philosophies such as Taoism and Confucianism, this little book is profound in its simplicity. The author has selected passages from the I Ching and then added his comments and insights on each saying. He has accompanied these with delightful Chinese ink drawings done in the Zen style.
