Disappointing The rules are good, but to much else felt like repetition and padding。 You could get away with just reading the last paragraph from each chapter。

We expectedly disagreed on a lot of different things, but this book laid the foundation to discover what those disagreements were as well as the (sometime surprising) agreements。 This is not a "self help" book, but a conversation about how to live a good and meaningful life。 How to approach the inevitable suffering of life with strength and clarity instead of victimhood, resentment, and rage。 Don't expect to get specific advice for your specific problems with this book。 But be open to asking the questions and discovering how to apply them to your unique life。Rated 4 stars and not 5 because I think you will struggle if you don't have a base understanding of the Bible or philosophy - I do have a background and struggled especially in the "pursue what is meaningful not expedient" chapter。 Great to read in a book club setting! 。。。more

Interesting analysis, but there is little deviation from traditional religious interpretations of the world

I am an atheist, or rather I would say I don’t believe in a god because I do not trust the proof, given for certain religions (e。g。 Christianity)。 Having read this book however (especially rule 2, 4, 7) I sometimes felt like I am participating in a bible study (a highly controversial book, so in my opinion it feels wrong to take evidence out of it)。 It’s because of the many bible references that this book only got 3 stars, because other than that I (generally) agree with his views。 Peterson also I am an atheist, or rather I would say I don’t believe in a god because I do not trust the proof, given for certain religions (e。g。 Christianity)。 Having read this book however (especially rule 2, 4, 7) I sometimes felt like I am participating in a bible study (a highly controversial book, so in my opinion it feels wrong to take evidence out of it)。 It’s because of the many bible references that this book only got 3 stars, because other than that I (generally) agree with his views。 Peterson also claimed that the general moral construct of western society is based on Christian values, which he gave, in my opinion, to little evidence for。Other than that I highly recommended the last 4 chapters of this book and the General Message and applicability of the rules given。 „You yourself are responsible for your actions。“ 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 One of the most interesting and insightful books read to date。 Claire this is a must-read, take your time and read it carefully, then you will get the most of it。 I had to read it 6 times to comprehend some very difficult topics about which I had very little knowledge。

Kniha, na kterou jsem byl zvědavý。 Kniha, která mi samotnému dala několik vhledů do mého vlastního života。 Kniha, která je neskutečně dlouhá na to sdělení, které říká。Kontroverzní kniha, kterou spousta lidí nemá rádo jenom proto, kdo ji napsal。 Za mě osobně poněkud nudná, rozvláčná a přebytečně opisující

I read this as a series of reflective essays and enjoyed them, especially the dad wisdom and stories about his family。 I understand why JP has a following。 I also understand why his scholarship is criticized and why some of his views are considered offensive。 He is writing from a certain perspective, which is encouraging and meaningful to people coming from a certain perspective, and to me that's valid。 This book felt like a real attempt to make the world a better place, and I appreciate that。 I read this as a series of reflective essays and enjoyed them, especially the dad wisdom and stories about his family。 I understand why JP has a following。 I also understand why his scholarship is criticized and why some of his views are considered offensive。 He is writing from a certain perspective, which is encouraging and meaningful to people coming from a certain perspective, and to me that's valid。 This book felt like a real attempt to make the world a better place, and I appreciate that。 。。。more

This book is now riddled with flagged passages, all of which will be fruitful to return to。 It took months to read because it is dense and meaningful。 It will take longer still to assimilate what was written - and this is definitely a book that one should take in and be changed by。

I decided to read this because I enjoy Jordan Peterson's quick wit in debate。 His ability to truly listen to his opponent and respectfully rebuke their points has always been a really pleasant thing to watch。 In addition to that , I agree with a lot of his points regarding political correctness and the necessity to define a point when the left goes too far。 A point which I actually enjoyed in this book as well: his argument that certain universities encourage their students to participate in act I decided to read this because I enjoy Jordan Peterson's quick wit in debate。 His ability to truly listen to his opponent and respectfully rebuke their points has always been a really pleasant thing to watch。 In addition to that , I agree with a lot of his points regarding political correctness and the necessity to define a point when the left goes too far。 A point which I actually enjoyed in this book as well: his argument that certain universities encourage their students to participate in activism for liberal movements and juxtaposing this to what the reaction would be if universities were instead to encourage students to participate in conservative activist movements。That being said, there was a lot about this book that I didn't like。 I noticed a number of strawmen arguments being used in a few chapters。 The most glaring one being his accusation towards the left of renouncing reason and logic。 This was prompted by an argument stating that they simultaneously believe in gender being a social construct and also calling a transgender person "man trapped inside a woman's body" or "woman trapped inside a man's body"。 Now that is a good argument。 But jumping to the conclusion that leftists renounce logic based on it is a bit of a stretch。 That's an easily refutable opponent - a straw man。 I also found that he was reading too much into works of fiction, possibly jumping to conclusions based on context he created himself。 Yes, they have a moral they try to convey。 However, as Oscar Wilde said, when you look at art, you see more of yourself than of the artist。 His leaps and very in-depth discussions of apparent symbolism were most ironically amusing to me in his dissection of The Little Mermaid。 He went so far in his certainty of what the characters meant and represented。 However, the ending of this story and its whole moral takeaway was completely turned on its head by Disney to make it a more palatable story for kids (spoiler alert: she dies in the original, never having her feelings towards the prince reciprocated)。 I couldn't take it seriously。 I couldn't, for example, take the argument of people not taking care of themselves because they are descendants of Adam and therefore unworthy。 If I have to be honest, all the vague connections he was exploring often made me question what the chapter was about。 I do understand the inclusion of the bible and the mention of other religious texts。 This is, in essence, a self-help book and religion provides comfort and stability for many。 However, as someone who doesn't necessarily feel this way, the reading of the bible within the chapters felt awkward and preachy。I did notice a lot of instances where personal belief and conviction was presented as fact。 For example, claiming that atheism doesn't exist, because there is a religious connotation to your actions - surely a moral code covers that just fine。 Using value system and religion interchangeably and defining obedience as the basis of religion, to then claim religion is in the base of our society because a level of obedience is, after all, crucial in social systems put a really sour taste in my mouth。 Obedience is only a partial base of religion。 Unquestioning belief is where most people draw the line。 And that is by no means a part of a social system - questioning the system is a very big part of democracy。However, there was a lot I took away from the book as well。 His discussion on positive feedback loops, which can send you in a depressive spiral is something I've noticed in my own experience; his conclusion that good is dominant in people since abusive parents aren't certain to raise abusive children - if that were the case, then abuse would be a lot more common than it is and it would grow geometrically; his point of understanding your potential for evil before you judge others on behaviours you can't know if you're capable of; the tight coupling of confidence we hold in various parts of our life and how easy it is for all to come crumbling down if one aspect is ruined (for example a cheating spouse); the fact that you can protect someone into weakness; the fact that if you start compromising in front of your fears you render yourself incapable or at least a lot less able to battle them later on。 To name but a few。However, even all those wonderful take-aways which as he said himself are things you didn't know you know, couldn't make me give this book 3 stars due to all the issues I discussed above。 Which is a shame, because I really do like Jordan Peterson and I think he does genuinely try to make the world a better place。And just one final note, I don't believe Jordan Peterson has anything against women。 He talks with much affection and respect about his daughter, wife, and mother。 However, why add fuel to the flames of the sexism accusations by equating masculinity with order and femininity with chaos and then go on to call your book "an antidote to chaos"! 。。。more

Billed as "the stupid man's smart person", this was my first written entry-point in Jordam Peterson。 Suffice to say, I liked his writing style though I may not have agreed with everything written。 He used clever quotes I had never heard before such as Mark Twain saying most mistakes are made not by what you don't know but by what you think you know。 Further examples used by Peterson included his personal life and such mainstream shows as The Simpsons。 Having studied at the University of Toronto Billed as "the stupid man's smart person", this was my first written entry-point in Jordam Peterson。 Suffice to say, I liked his writing style though I may not have agreed with everything written。 He used clever quotes I had never heard before such as Mark Twain saying most mistakes are made not by what you don't know but by what you think you know。 Further examples used by Peterson included his personal life and such mainstream shows as The Simpsons。 Having studied at the University of Toronto I can see his appeal。 I liked this book a lot and would give this 4。5/5。 Certainly worth a read。 。。。more

Regardless of all the flak that Jordan Peterson is getting, no one can deny that the support and love drown the negativities thrown at him。 He is a a man full of consciousness in a world full of people trying to demonize other people just because their beliefs do not adhere to their beliefs。 This book is a good gift for the 20th century: it is simple and it helps you open up to the world around you。DO NOT bother the children when they are skateboarding!
