When its wisdom is sought with sincerity and sensitivity, this Chinese oracle will help to promote success and good fortune and to impart balance and perspective to your life. Its everlasting popularity lies in the lessons that it teaches about how to use your positive qualities in order to attain life's greatest rewards-prosperity, understanding, and peace of mind.

 Rating: - a wonderful spiritual guideI don't ask it questions, it tells me what i need to know. I can't stop buying it for people. Rating: - Excellent I Ching sourceI have many I Ching interpretations and find that this text follows closely with them. The language is very simple and focuses on its application to you rather then the symbolism found in the others. It was a nice addition to my library and gives me a fast and simple reading. I do recommend it to any students of the Oracle. Rating: - The I Ching or Book of ChangesBrian Browne Walker subtitles his book, A Guide to Life's Turning Points. This book certainly keeps its promise. The I Ching is one of the most profound guides for the seeker of truth and balance in one's life. Walker's version inspires deep levels of self-awareness. He has captured the essence of the I Ching - that we must first nurture and then act from our inner strength and always follow the principles of "humility, simplicity, equanimity and acceptance."

I have been studying and using the I-Ching for over 20 years and have found this to be the most concise, responsible book on the i-Ching in quite some time. A lot of interpretations are completely irresponsible, and do more damage then good. I use this everyday now. I highly recommend Brian's Hua Hu Ching also. Now if I can get his "crazy dog series" I'll be set. Rating:  - Straightforward, ReservedThis is a good edition for more logical and straightforward people. The interpretations are not always very well-rounded, but it can be a good introduction to the I Ching.
