Summary, etc.:	This book contains a dramatic and revealing translation of this ancient classic into English. The Chinese original is set side-by-side with the translation. Two things set this work apart from other translated versions. First, archeological findings are used to uncover the meaning of passages obscured for thousands of years. Second, it preserves the flavor of the original in a poetic rendition. This revised edition includes a new chapter on a historical perspective, and other additions, changes and minor reformatting. From back cover.
Language Note:	Text in English and Chinese.
