3.0 out of 5 stars Accurate enough for understanding Philosophy, February 15, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I let my (Chinese-born) teacher read some of this version of the Spiritual Pivot. He has studied Classical Chinese Medicine under 3 different well-known (Chinese) Masters over the course of nearly 30 years. His understanding of the Spiritual Pivot is quite deep - and he lectures on various chapters of it in Vancouver BC.

In his opinion, it is only about 60% accurate in terms of the specifics. However, he states that this translation is certainly good enough to aid in one's comprehension of the (very necessary) fundamentals of classical Chinese thought.

I commend the author on his effort to translate a very difficult & very deep work
