Title I Ching. Kniga Peremen
Description The I Ching, or Book of Changes, is one of the oldest books of Chinese civilisation and probably one of its most famous. At its centre are sixty-four hexagrams, special symbols meant to describe particular situations in human life and disclose how they may develop. The meaning of the Book of Changes reaches far beyond fortune-telling. Its wisdom inspired generations of philosophers, writers, and many readers searching for answers to fundamental questions of life and hoping to lift the veil over the mystery of existence. The influence of the I Ching on world culture is hard to overstate. Gustav Jung, who wrote a detailed commentary for the English-language edition, called it the wisest of all books.

This edition includes the classic translation of the Book of Changes by Julian Shchutskii, with detailed notes. It also contains a rare text created under the strong influence of the I Ching, as many texts of this kind were: the eleventh-century Taoist treatise on the attainment of immortality, Chapters on Awakening to Truth, translated by Evgeny Torchinov.
