What does everyone in the modern world need to know?

Renowned psychologist Jordan B. Peterson's answer to this most difficult of questions uniquely combines the hard-won truths of ancient tradition with the stunning revelations of cutting-edge scientific research.


Humorous, surprising and informative, Dr. Peterson tells us why skateboarding boys and girls must be left alone, what terrible fate awaits those who criticize too easily, and why you should always pet a cat when you meet one on the street.

What does the nervous system of the lowly lobster have to tell us about standing up straight (with our shoulders back) and about success in life? Why did ancient Egyptians worship the capacity to pay careful attention as the highest of gods? What dreadful paths do people tread when they become resentful, arrogant and vengeful?

Dr. Peterson journeys broadly, discussing discipline, freedom, adventure and responsibility, distilling the world's wisdom into 12 practical and profound rules for life. 12 Rules for Life shatters the modern commonplaces of science, faith and human nature, while transforming and ennobling the mind and spirit of its readers.

    Dr. Peterson pours out a lifetime of thinking into a book that will be challenging for most to read, but worth the effort. Bravo, Jordan.

    I love this book. It beautifully embodies the message it is trying to convey. It’s existence proves the truth it seeks to uncover and the change it encourages readers to make for the betterment of their own lives.

    Peterson has written a book that can serve as a guidebook to supplement any other “life advice” that would come from someone older and close to me. I consider Peterson a great modern day philosopher and writer. I highly recommend this to anyone!
  • Highly recommend!

    When I first saw this book being mentioned in social media, I was quite skeptical it would be any good. I read the book and I can confirm, this is an excellent book, it talks from things on goal setting - to - raising your children - to - how to handle a negotiation - to - how to have a happy marriage. It is truly an excellent read if you are trying to improve the person you are. But reading the book is 1% of the job, 99% belong in the “treat yourself as if you were someone you were responsible for taking care of”.

    I seldom write reviews, only entirely positive or entirely negative. If I never read this book I wouldn’t even have begun to thought about what they could mean for the rest of my life. Many people will receive this book as a gift over the course of my life.
  • Good Rules to Live By

    I love the 12 rules and I think Peterson offers sound advice that is well explained in the book. Some of the explanations and get a little wordy so you really need to tune in to get the most from this book. That being said this book is very thought provoking and I would recommend it to anyone philosophically or self-improvement inclined. The book is overall well written and heavily cited to support the rules Peterson puts forth.
  • Powerful.
