Description

Internationally renowned clinical psychologist Jordan B. Peterson has influenced the modern understanding of personality and has become one of the most famous thinkers of our time.
His lectures deal with everything from love relationships and parenting to mythology and the Bible, and have been attended by tens of millions of viewers around the world. At a time of unprecedented change and enormous political and social polarization, his frank and refreshing message about the value of individual responsibility and the wisdom of the ancient world has found global resonance.

In this book, now considered a landmark for personal development, he presents 12 fundamental and practical rules for living a meaningful life - from getting our house in order before we judge anyone, to comparing ourselves to who we were yesterday, not who someone else is today. Happiness is a futile goal, Peterson advocates, and urges us in its place to seek meaning, not for the sake of meaning, but as a resistance against the pain attached to our existence.

Drawing on typical examples from his sessions and personal life, modern psychology and philosophy, and lessons from humanity's oldest myths, The 12 Rules for Life offers a salutary antidote to the chaos of our lives: eternal truths that find application in our modern problems.

Internationally recognized clinical psychologist Jordan B. Peterson has influenced the modern understanding of personality and has become one of the most famous intellectuals of our time. His lectures cover topics ranging from romantic relationships and child-rearing to mythology and the Bible, and have been watched by tens of millions of viewers around the world. In an era of unprecedented change and immense political and social polarization, his sincere and refreshing message about the value of individual responsibility and the wisdom of the ancient world has found global resonance.

In this book, which is now considered a milestone for personal development, 12 fundamental and practical rules are presented on how to live a meaningful life – from putting our house in order before criticizing anyone, to comparing ourselves with who we were yesterday, and not with who someone else is today. Happiness is a futile goal, Peterson advocates, and instead urges us to seek meaning, not for the sake of meaning, but as a resistance against the pain that is connected with our existence.

Drawing on vivid examples from his sessions and personal life, modern psychology and philosophy, and lessons from humanity's oldest myths, the 12 Rules for Life offer a life-saving antidote to the chaos of our lives: timeless truths that apply to our modern problems.

Incredible book, decent translation (although having read the original, I would translate some parts differently). The value of the content is such that practically the book is free. Buy it for your children and see them become better and stronger individuals day by day. I wish I could have read it ten years ago, my life would have definitely taken a much better turn. However, even now I feel grateful that this book fell into my hands. I highly recommend it with great enthusiasm and without the slightest reservation.

Amazing book!!
Jordan Peterson is excellent!!
The one star is because the translation seems like it came from copy-pasting on Google Translate.
Shame on the editor who allowed it to be published like this.

    Jordan Peterson is one of those people that you either love or hate. The book is very good although it tends to drag a bit in its introductory examples before getting to the heart of each rule.
    Having watched countless videos of his, I believe he is a better speaker than writer. Nevertheless, the book is a little treasure.

    The book is amazing. I wish I had read this book at 20 or 25 instead of 30+. However, the translation is HORRIBLE. The translator seems to not understand the text, resulting in a word-for-word translation that makes no sense, of course. I wonder how the editor allowed this thing to be published. You have to read the same sentence over and over again and have listened to the author's relevant speeches to understand what he means from the context. I have read the book in English and, although it is by no means light reading, it still makes sense even to someone who is not familiar with academic texts. Therefore, if you know decent English, prefer the original. If not, you will forget your Greek.

    In several points it becomes a little tiresome. The author repeats himself! In general, it keeps your interest until the end. Maybe you will understand it better with a second reading.

    I give it 4 out of 5 stars because personally, I found it a bit difficult to read. Compared to other self-improvement books I have read, this was one of the most challenging. I will definitely read it again to better understand what it says.

    I admire Jordan Peterson, but I don't believe I will love this book until I can understand it better.
