'Simplified I Ching' (The magic tortoise oracle) is based on the famous Confucian classic, 'I Ching Oracle of Change.' It contains information in regard to building hexagrams of the I Ching, understanding the future - by using simple, 'finger counting' numbers. You can make predictions while walking to the shops. The books earthy style is ground-breaking and full of realism. Written by a dedicated, disciple of the 'Oracle' - there is a definite 'street savvy' flavor in regard to the overall interpretation. 'Simplified I Ching' drags the ancient Chinese Oracle into the modern age - 'kicking and screaming.' Forces it on to the street - banishes the 10,000 year old 'cob webbed' mystique and shows you the truth. It is not for the purist or intellectually squeamish 'I Ching' followers. The book brutalizes - 'kicks arse' big time! It tells you straight, tackles problems head on. If you want an idea of what your future really holds, then read the book and be enlightened.
