  • Dear Mr. Kung. You wrote a beautiful little book of letters to a friend or colleague, I'm not sure to whom it was written. There was a brilliant letter to him re your view of astrology. I can not find the book and I have forgotten the name. Would you let me know the title and publisher and I'll try to get a copy. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you in advance.
