Résumé

"Where ancient symbols met binary code-and birthed the digital world."What do an ancient Chinese book of divination and a 17th-century European philosopher have in common? From Hexagram to Algorithm traces the astonishing connection between the I Ching-the oldest of China's classic texts-and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz's invention of binary code. This second volume of An East-West Trilogy explores how East and West converged in unexpected ways to shape the foundation of modern computing.
Jan Krikke weaves history, cosmology, and philosophy to show how binary logic-now at the core of digital technology-has ancient roots in the yin-yang patterns of Chinese thought. Through in-depth analysis of the I Ching, Chinese aesthetics, the development of fuzzy logic, and the history of computing, this book reframes algorithms as not merely technical tools, but expressions of a broader cosmological vision.
It reveals a hidden dialogue between Confucian ethics, Daoist metaphysics, and Western rationalism-and asks how this fusion of symbolic logic and ethical worldviews can inform our digital future.
