Cheng, Chair Professor of Cultural History, The Education University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong * With aplomb and gusto, writing as a fan and student of the Yijing, Geoffrey Redmond brings considerable erudition and affecting passion to bear on his valiant effort to reconstruct the original meanings of the ancient classic. His hermeneutic endeavor contributes to a better understanding of the text’s philosophical as well as oracular messages. * On-cho Ng, Professor of Asian Studies and Philosophy, Pennsylvania State University, U.S.A. * In his latest book on the I Ching or Book of Changes, Geoffrey Redmond has opened yet another window on this endlessly fascinating Chinese classic––a work that has stimulated creative minds in China for some three thousand years. The special merit of Redmond's book is that it organizes and explains the imagery of the I Ching thematically, helping us to understand how and why the cryptic classic found such fertile interpretive soil, not only in the land of its birth, but also in many other parts of the world, including the West. * Richard J.
