To achieve the publishing of a book like this, is an effort only few manage to accomplish within their lifetime span.
In the old days only monks were able to devote themselves in this way to a cause and/or a book.
It has become a work of art itself, this book, even when not looking into its contence which is an adventure also I believe.
It makes the mysterious Chinese language even more interesting than it is without this book.Mainly because the feeling that one should connect with a Chinese symbol, rather than the mere translation of it, makes it more easy to comprehend and remember it.
Because isn't it so, that language is an explanation not only of the mind but even more so the vehicle to explain the thoughts that travel through the heart and soul of us who speak it?
This book has managed to achieve the unique combination that not only explains the superficial meaning of a Chinese language symbol but it also explains the feeling which is connected with it.
Unique indeed and a monk's task fullfilled.
I do recommend it and congratulate those who particapated but most of all the author Hans Kisling.
He's done a great job.
With kind regards and respect,

Beste heer Schotanus
Tijdens de paasdagen heb ik heel wat uurtjes doorgebracht in China-Y. Wat een bijzonder boek. Heel origineel die toepassing en verklaring van de tekens. Ik zal nog veel in het boek lezen en kijken.
