[net.books] I ching

johnc@dartvax.UUCP (John Cabell) (01/15/84)

  I'm not sure which group this goes in, so I put it in games
and books.  My question:

Can anyone tell me the names of some books that describe
'I Ching' in any amount of detail?  I kind of fell for the
one we have on our system that uses a random factor, but I
would like to know more about it.  Thanx in advance,

Good books that describe the I Ching are:

1)  The Baynes translations (which was used by Jung)
2)  the translation by Legge in the Dover books line
3)  the new translation available from Bantam by a guy named
    Sam Roffler (I think, don't have any of these right at hand.)

	I really recommend this last because it is much more intelligable
	than any of the others, as it is a reinterpretation into modern
	English rather than a translation of old literary Chinese.
