About the book 12 Rules for Life?
Peterson is a clinical psychologist, prominent critic,
intellectual, Harvard professor, altogether a currently
very reactionary and influential figure renowned for
his youtube lectures with millions of views – he is
undoubtedly loved by many, and his words speak to
many people as well.
So what is the book about? In short, this is
regarded as a self-help book (one could say “a
manual”) offering an in-depth insight into what it
takes to have a satisfactory, meaningful life.
Meaning is the buzzword in this work – not
happiness, not wealth, but indeed meaning that we
should constantly search for – and Jordan
Peterson wants to show us how through his 12
practical and perspicacious principles. In other
words, a series of eternal truths to be applied to
our modern, fast-paced, constantly changing lives.
Reviews:
“Dr. Peterson is a genius. He’s changed the lives of
many. I simply cannot heap enough praise on this
book, and on Dr. Peterson in general. I’ve watched
his videos, listened to everything he said, and read
everything he wrote. I’ve rarely encountered such a
brilliant mind. And I am a voracious reader - I’ve
been reading since the age of five, and through
graduate school in computer science, and through
medical school and residency, and to the present
day. I would put Dr, Peterson's book, “12 Rules for
life”, in the top ten most important books I’ve ever
read. Many people will tell you many things about
this book, and about Dr. Peterson. All I will say is:
read the book, and watch his videos. And make up
your mind. You will not regret it”

It is important to note that the book uses
interdisciplinary evidence and touches upon
numerous different topics like psychology, science
and neuroscience, history, biology, literature and
religion, which altogether adds to the great value of
the work as it unveils the undisputed links and strong
connections between all these disciplines.
Amongst the twelve timeless values is the
importance of a simpler, organized, orderly world; the
need to always be honest and truthful not only to
oneself but also to others; making use of traditional,
ancient wisdom; individual responsibility within
society, just to name a few. To support his views, he
uses many examples both from his academia,
professional studies but also personal, day-to-day life
and experience. It also includes real-life stories and
author’s own confessions which makes it a very
personal piece of work.
There are many ways to describe the book: amusing,
surprising, informative, intriguing, at times even
infuriating, but altogether definitely unputdownable.
Most importantly, many critics view it as an unusual
piece of work, but definitely in a good way; unlike
many other pseudo psychological books, this is not a
ready-made list of quick fix actions and simplified,
common ideas, but more food for thought, it showers
us with ideas to reflect upon our human traits and
ways of being which we may find surprisingly
accurate.
Maybe not directly, but Peterson hands us tools to
try to navigate and overcome the chaos (even
mentioned in the book’s title) inside of us but also to
make out the meaning of the outside world as well.
