12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos

The famous clinical psychologist Jordan B. Peterson answers life's most difficult questions in this world bestseller by connecting the truths of ancient traditions with the astonishing discoveries of the latest scientific research.

In this book of exceptional strength, you will find 12 very simple, but deep and wise rules that will help you to put your thoughts, your personality and your home in order, and that by working on your own improvement, you will improve the whole world at the same time.

Writing with a lot of humor, Peterson brings us an interesting and educational book full of surprising twists - he teaches us why we should not object to boys and girls while they skate on the fences, why those who lightly criticize face a difficult fate and why we should always pet a cat when we meet it on the road. How can the lobster's nervous system teach us about what posture we need to take (straighten your back!) and how to achieve success in life? What terrible paths do people take when they become bitter, vengeful, and arrogant? Why do we need to get our own house in order before we start criticizing others? Why should we compare ourselves to who we were yesterday and not to who someone else is today? How will we find "happiness" and why should it not be our primary goal?

Jordan Peterson broadly breaks down his thorough argumentation, talking about discipline, freedom, adventure and responsibility - from the wisdom traditions of all cultures, he selected the most important and summarized it in twelve practical and profound rules on how to live a more meaningful life.
