Co-Chaos Patterns is the 2nd edition of Volume 2 in the sensational DOUBLE BUBBLE TOE series. Surprise! The author hopes you'll buy the less expensive EBOOK version! Why? Because its text is completely searchable with an interactive table of contents. You get 42 active e-links that amplify the data, plus over 80 color images, graphics, and charts. The colors allow greater distinctions in data, as well as more aesthetic appeal in the illustrations. Of course, like the print version, it has 12 chapters in 100 sections, a Series Summary, Bibliography, and Reviews. But of course, the black & white PRINT version needs no power supply. It is easy on the eye, impact-proof, lendable, scribble-able, and dog-earable. You may even want to get both! The German publication of an initial single volume sparked this series. It was published in German as Chaosforschung by Diederichs Verlag. That original volume was then enlarged, updated, and split into Volumes 2 and 3 of this series. For it, Claus Claussen wrote this review that appeared in the magazine Neues Denken und Handeln in November 1992. [Let it be noted that permission was kindly given to adapt the next-to-last paragraph slightly to fit the scope of this new edition.] "Universal Life Pattern could be a subtitle for this lofty theme that will pique your interest in the Orient. It might also be called Breaking a Universal Code, because it opens the door on a fascinating view of life. Number, more exactly, archetypal number, is the key to this research on chaos theory, Chinese philosophy, and DNA. "Katya Walter, prominent philosopher from Texas, a Ph.D. who also has studied at the Jung Institute in Zurich and taught for a year at Jinan University of Guangzhou, goes to the source of life's dynamic pattern in her book. She describes how the DNA spiral of our linear-minded Western science relates to the analog-style thinking of the old I Ching. She shows that the genetic code and I Ching function through the same chaos patterns, and that the physical system of DNA can be translated mathematically into the psychic system of the I Ching. "Other scientists, and especially Martin Schonberger (1973) in his book Verborgener Schlussel zum Leben-Weltformel I Ging im genetischen Code, have earlier pointed out an astonishing correspondence between the genetic code and the I Ching. "Walter makes reference to this work, but adds a new analog perspective, even enlightenment beyond Schonberger's book, going deeper and wider. Very concretely and beyond speculation, she lays bare a decodable correlation between amino acids and hexagrams. She shows that biochemical laws and old wisdom are connected through this mathematical pattern. It garbs old Eastern truth in new Western clothing. This chaos supersystem is provable with new terminology and computer graphics. "Threading through the awesome labyrinth of this stunning theme, your guide Katya Walter continually startles you back into clarity with her personal engagement in the search for truth. She gives sidelong glances into her dreams, talks of her experiences and frustrations, and even jokes along the path. At such times her tone, normally scientific and yet crisp with a refreshing simplicity, takes on a more poetic lilt. "The author takes an informative stroll through the chaos garden as she explores its profound central theme, approaching it from three distinct vistas: I Ching, chaos theory, and genetic code. This sight-seeing tour is designed to render each path fascinating yet familiar. Otherwise the waves of scientific proof could become too big. "Above all, this carefully crafted work is a treasure trove chock full of jewels. Finally, there is a special paradoxical treasure at the bottom of the chest: without ever leaving the groundwork of science, it moves beyond logic into universal values.""
