The essays contained in this book respond affirmatively to this question in seeking to show how The Classic of Changes can help us think through the particularly human challenge of establishing meaning and making choices between alternatives. The author?s book explores and discusses novel and often surprising ways for contemporary readers to interpret and apply this ancient Chinese classic, touching upon fields such as narration, technology, ecology, psychology, aesthetics, ontology, cognition, semiotics, and gender issues. This book is of appeal to both students and informed readers with an interest in the mysteries of The Classic of Changes, and to researchers in areas of Chinese philosophy, Chinese history, religious studies, and East Asian approaches to health and well-being. 410 0$aChinese Culture, Globality, Connectivity and Modernity,$x2662-9763 ;$v15 606 $aPhilosophy, Chinese 606 $aReligions 606 $aEast Asia 606 $aEthnology$zAsia 606 $aCulture 606 $aSocial psychology 606 $aAlternative medicine 606 $aChinese Philosophy 606 $aEast Asian Religions 606 $aAsian Culture 606 $aCultural Psychology 606 $aComplementary and Alternative Medicine 615 0$aPhilosophy, Chinese. 615 0$aReligions. 615 0$aEast Asia. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aSocial psychology. 615 0$aAlternative medicine. 615 14$aChinese Philosophy. 615 24$aEast Asian Religions. 615 24$aAsian Culture. 615 24$aCultural Psychology. 615 24$aComplementary and Alternative Medicine. 676 $a181.11 702 $aGeir Siguršsson$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHon$b Tze-ki$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910999671403321 996 $aContemporary Interpretations and Readings of the Yijing$94374683 997 $aUNINA
