Warning - this is a reprint, April 23 2006
By J. Thomas "fyreflye" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The I Ching Plain and Simple: A Guide to Working with the Oracle of Change (Paperback)
Karcher fans and new readers should be warned that this edition is a reprint of Karcher's "How To Use the I Ching," which is still available and possibly already in your collection. It's an excellent if simplified introduction and recommended for newcomers to the Yi, but you don't need two of them. If you're more experienced get Karcher's irreplaceable five-star "Total I Ching," his best and deepest version to date.
