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 twelve 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.

Critics Review

Genuinely extraordinary... Unmatched by any other modern thinker ... A prophet for our times
Daily Mail
The most influential public intellectual in the Western world right now
New York Times
Everyone must read 12 Rules For Life... The most enlightening book I have read in ages. Google him if you like, if it makes you feel better. It will, by the way. But get the book, that is the most important thing. And then read it. And then pass it on to a friend
Chris Evans
In a different intellectual league... Peterson can take the most difficult ideas and make them entertaining. This may be why his YouTube videos have had 35m views. He is fast becoming the closest that academia has to a rock star
Observer
Charismatic and exceptionally articulate.... Peterson is a new kind of public intellectual, using YouTube to spread ideas infinitely wider than predecessors such as Bertrand Russell or Isaiah Berlin
New Statesman
Anyone who is in a position of leadership would find it very insightful ... Jordan Peterson is a profound writer
Gina Miller
It is that rare thing: self-help that might actually be helpful
New Statesman
Fascinating ... Peterson is brilliant on many subjects
Sunday Times
One of the most eclectic and stimulating public intellectuals at large today, fearless and impassioned
Guardian
Profound, charismatic and serious... One of the most important thinkers to emerge on the world stage for many years
Spectator
