What are the most valuable things that everyone should know?
Acclaimed clinical psychologist Jordan B Peterson has influenced the modern understanding of personality, and now he has become one of the world's most popular public thinkers, with his lectures on topics from the Bible to romantic relationships to mythology drawing tens of millions of viewers. In an era of unprecedented change and polarizing politics, his frank and refreshing message about the value of individual responsibility and ancient wisdom has resonated around the world.
In this book, he provides twelve profound and practical principles for how to live a meaningful life, from setting your house in order before criticising others to comparing yourself to who you were yesterday, not someone else today. Happiness is a pointless goal, he shows us. Instead we must search for meaning, not for its own sake, but as a defence against the suffering that is intrinsic to our existence.
Drawing on vivid examples from the author's clinical practice and personal life, cutting-edge psychology and philosophy, and lessons from humanity's oldest myths and stories, 12 Rules for Life offers a deeply rewarding antidote to the chaos in our lives: eternal truths applied to our modern problems.

Kept me alive
Since falling severely ill with a neurological disease everything has been taking from me. This book is what has kept me from taking my life. Words can't describe its salience. Thank you Dr. Peterson.
‘Twas the perfect book to cap off my year of growth and learning.
I find it so interesting that I discovered Peterson and his work just when I began to apply some of the very things he presents in this book. This was truly a blessing that has already impacted my life profoundly. I managed to complete this in less than a week and almost cried when it ended. (I actually kinda did, tbh). Will be reading again with a few of my friends. I appreciate your sacrifice, Dr. Peterson!
Must Read
Excellent resource. Dr. Peterson’s insights have been instrumental in helping me find answers to why the world around me is the way that it is. I wish everyone would take the time to listen to his audiobooks and podcasts. It is a rare glimpse into reality. Men especially need the help Jordan Peterson provides. He has taught me more about being a man than my absent father. I can’t thank Dr. Peterson enough for his time and dedication in sharing with others what he has to share. He is passionate and truly wants the world to be a better place. Thank you for putting not only this book together but also Maps Of Meaning, 12 More Rules for Life, and his Podcasts.
