"This is a good translation in my opinion. The answers are contextual for the most part, so if you don't know for example what White Reeds represent in ancient Chinese culture, a few paragraphs will explain the context for you so you can appreciate each of the 64 hexagrams."
"I don't find the I Ching as accessible as the translation I have of the Tao Te Ching, but I think it's a really interesting philosophy, and I want to continue studying it in order to fully understand it and continue to create meaning from it."
