Review

"Mondo Secter’s The I Ching Handbook is a uniquely useful book in a market flooded with new interpretations of ancient Asian classics. This book is a truly ling or spiritually attuned and inspired masterpiece. This is the most useful presentation of the Chinese Book of Changes in our day, to be recommended to the beginner as well as savant."
