Publisher Description
The companion volume to 12 Rules for Life offers further guidance on the perilous path of modern life.
In 12 Rules for Life, clinical psychologist and celebrated professor at Harvard and the University of Toronto Dr. Jordan B. Peterson helped millions of readers impose order on the chaos of their lives. Now, in this bold sequel, Peterson delivers twelve more lifesaving principles for resisting the exhausting toll that our desire to order the world inevitably takes.
In a time when the human will increasingly imposes itself over every sphere of life—from our social structures to our emotional states—Peterson warns that too much security is dangerous. What’s more, he offers strategies for overcoming the cultural, scientific, and psychological forces causing us to tend toward tyranny, and teaches us how to rely instead on our instinct to find meaning and purpose, even—and especially—when we find ourselves powerless.
While chaos, in excess, threatens us with instability and anxiety, unchecked order can petrify us into submission. Beyond Order provides a call to balance these two fundamental principles of reality itself, and guides us along the straight and narrow path that divides them.
Customer Reviews
Great mindset for life
I love all of the negative reviews from people that clearly haven’t read/listened to a second of JP’s books. There is nothing extensively political in any of his works. It’s all about focusing on the individual. Very thought provoking ideas that have made me self reflect for weeks on various principles.
Amazing
I honestly got more out of the first book. This was a competitive and nicely done follow up.
12 More Rules
I liked 12 Rules better but still insightful and full of wisdom. Jordan Peterson is brilliant. He isn’t just making things up it comes from years or study and research of his clients. His thoughts are sound.
