The concept of yinyang lies at the heart of Chinese thought and culture. The relationship between these two opposing, yet mutually dependent, forces is explored in this brilliant book. Rooted in the Chinese philosophical tradition, the book also demonstrates how yinyang thought manifested itself in diverse cultural practices from divination to the art of war.
