The I Ching originated in China as a divination manual more than three thousand years ago. In 136 BCE the emperor declared it a Confucian classic, and in the centuries that followed, this work had a profound influence on the philosophy, religion, art, literature, politics, science, technology, and medicine of various cultures throughout East Asia. Jesuit missionaries brought knowledge of the I Ching to Europe in the seventeenth century, and the American counterculture embraced it in the 1960's. Here Richard Smith tells the extraordinary story of how this cryptic and once obscure book became one of the most widely read and extensively analyzed texts in all of world literature. In this concise history, Smith traces the evolution of the I Ching in China and throughout the world, explaining its complex structure, its manifold uses in different cultures, and its enduring appeal. He shows how the indigenous beliefs and customs of Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and Tibet "domesticated" the text, and he reflects on whether this Chinese classic can be compared to religious books such as the Bible or the Qur'an. Smith also looks at how the I Ching came to be published in dozens of languages, providing insight and inspiration to millions worldwide--including ardent admirers in the West such as Leibniz, Carl Jung, Philip K. Dick, Allen Ginsberg, Hermann Hesse, Bob Dylan, Jorge Luis Borges, and I. M. Pei. Smith offers an unparalleled biography of the most revered book in China's entire cultural tradition, and he shows us how this enigmatic ancient classic has become a truly global phenomenon.

De tekens van de *I Tjing, het boek der veranderingen*, heeft Gerrie van Nimwegen, via weeftechniek, omgezet in beelden. Uit deze tekens en hun bewaard gebleven combinaties zijn fascinerende platen ontstaan.

Wij kunnen er ons spel mee bedrijven, zoals u in het boek kunt zien, en er ons persoonlijk beeldenboek mee maken. Hoe groter onze fantasie des te groter de variaties die wij toe kunnen passen. Indringend en inspirerend kunnen deze figuren aanleiding zijn tot meditatie. Ook voor de beeldende kunsten, de architectuur, de muziek en zelfs voor de wetenschap, blijken ze van bijzonder belang. 

Er dient benadrukt te worden, dat de *I Tjing*-tekens en hun combinaties van een ouderdom zijn die niet te achterhalen is, en dus reeds lang bestonden voordat de filosofie, die tot uiting komt in de *I Tjing*, erop geënt werden.

Het scheiden van de filosofie en de tekens in dit verband geeft ruimte voor veronderstellingen. Opvallend is de overeenkomst van deze beelden met de 'beeldbrieven' die de U.S.A. recent het universum inzond. Sluit zich hier een cirkel? Wij hebben hier te doen met een erfgoed van de wereld, dat als het ware onthuld is. Wanneer deze beelden ontcijferd worden met dezelfde code waarmee de Nasa haar beelden creëerde, welke gegevens komen dan vrij? Wat zullen zij prijsgeven van hun herkomst? Wat voor verrassingen staan ons hier nog te wachten?
