How should we live properly in a world of chaos and uncertainty?

Jordan Peterson has helped millions of people, young and old, men and women, aim at a life of responsibility and meaning. Now he can help you.

Drawing on his own work as a clinical psychologist and on lessons from humanity's oldest myths and stories, Peterson offers 12 profound and realistic principles to live by. After all, as he reminds us, we each have a vital role to play in the unfolding destiny of the world.

Deep, rewarding and enlightening, 12 Rules for Life is a lifeboat built solidly for stormy seas: ancient wisdom applied to our contemporary problems.

Passionate and inspiring

The book is an insightful read. Jordan puts across his point of view on the rules and responsibilities which we all must adhere to passionately. His examples are insightful and rooted in psychology. I think he could have used simpler language to convey the same messages but nevertheless he puts his point across clearly and strongly.

Wisdom that helps you introspect

Highly recommended.

Magnificently thought provoking.

Since the narrator himself is an author every bit of line is meaningfully orchestrated. Although some rules suggested by the narrator can be labeled biased it will eventually boil to listeners perspective. Most of the arguments made by the author seem very plausible. I personally have experienced the world in line with the authors perception and hence found extremely meaningful and reverberating. Analogies and authors personal life anecdotes make the experience more empathetic. You will thoroughly enjoy the book even on repeated listens.
