What
does everyone in the modern world need to know? Renowned psychologist
Jordan B. Peterson's answer to this most difficult of questions uniquely
combines the hard-won truths of ancient tradition with the stunning
revelations of cutting-edge scientific research.
Humorous,
surprising and informative, Dr. Peterson tells us why skateboarding boys
and girls must be left alone, what terrible fate awaits those who
criticize too easily, and why you should always pet a cat when you meet
one on the street.
What does the nervous system of the lowly
lobster have to tell us about standing up straight (with our shoulders
back) and about success in life? Why did ancient Egyptians worship the
capacity to pay careful attention as the highest of gods? What dreadful
paths do people tread when they become resentful, arrogant and vengeful?
Dr. Peterson journeys broadly, discussing discipline, freedom,
adventure and responsibility, distilling the world's wisdom into 12
practical and profound rules for life. 12 Rules for Life shatters
the modern commonplaces of science, faith and human nature, while
transforming and ennobling the mind and spirit of its readers.
