Summary

The long-awaited sequel to 12 RULES FOR LIFE, which has sold over 5 million copies around the world

In 12 Rules for Life, acclaimed public thinker and clinical psychologist Jordan B。 Peterson offered an antidote to the chaos in our lives: eternal truths applied to modern anxieties。 His insights have helped millions of readers and resonated powerfully around the world。

Now in this much-anticipated sequel, Peterson goes further, showing that part of life's meaning comes from reaching out into the domain beyond what we know, and adapting to an ever-transforming world。 While an excess of chaos threatens us with uncertainty, an excess of order leads to a lack of curiosity and creative vitality。 Beyond Order therefore calls on us to balance the two fundamental principles of reality - order and chaos ­- and reveals the profound meaning that can be found on the path that divides them。

In times of instability and suffering, Peterson reminds us that there are sources of strength on which we can all draw: insights borrowed from psychology, philosophy, and humanity's greatest myths and stories。 Drawing on the hard-won truths of ancient wisdom, as well as deeply personal lessons from his own life and clinical practice, Peterson offers twelve new principles to guide readers towards a more courageous, truthful and meaningful life。

- Feb 18 2021 -It's bizarre how there are book reviews for this, given the book is unreleased。The previous (and only I can recall?) book I ever pre-ordered was just recently released: CG Jung's Black Books, shipped in October 2020。 On Amazon, prior to the date of shipment, their product page disallowed product reviews (sensibly IMHO)。 Moving on。。。This is likely to be a notable work。 Lots of fan-base interest, and great reception on 12 Rules。 A superficial first thought is, is it "as good as" 12 - Feb 18 2021 -It's bizarre how there are book reviews for this, given the book is unreleased。The previous (and only I can recall?) book I ever pre-ordered was just recently released: CG Jung's Black Books, shipped in October 2020。 On Amazon, prior to the date of shipment, their product page disallowed product reviews (sensibly IMHO)。 Moving on。。。This is likely to be a notable work。 Lots of fan-base interest, and great reception on 12 Rules。 A superficial first thought is, is it "as good as" 12 Rules? Ah, but it does not make much difference to me。 One could expect the direction will be different, falling under the "beyond order" frame, and so be adaptive of "the new", "the novel"。 Again, with respect to the previous book, I think "it is a companion to 12 Rules", as it falls within the original Quora 42 rules list。 Yet, while it's from the quora list, and it's "12 more rules", Jordan Peterson is far more of a left-wing philosophical type, a known prolific adventuring scientist, researcher, if one is familiar with his primary work。 I say the left-wing bit partly because of personal bias (I am relatively far left) and with all due respect to those who like him who consider themselves right-wing, conservative, etc。 Given his own current life and transformation, conscious/unconscious experiences, I might risk a hope that this will "be better than" 12 Rules。 That's just my personal take。Much love for the original 42 rules list, such an attitude-transforming list, and good food for meditation。 Let's see how "Beyond Order" as a motif goes; chaos is a welcome part of my life, habitually seek the unknown, so this is something personally preferred over "antidote to chaos"。 I am curious。I guess, this amounts to a hopeful, pre-review prediction。 Best of luck to Jordan Peterson in this release, hope it's received well。 。。。more

Listened to the talk about them not fully expanded but the ideas were interesting。

Wow, some of the things I read about JP are so full of bitterness and vitriol it’s weird。 He’s a hypocrite and a drug taker selling basic advice so should be strung up? The pomposity makes me cringe。 I for one enjoy listening to him and quite enjoyed his last book。 The advice he gives clearly isn’t for everyone, after all we know that self entitlement and victim mentality reigns supreme nowadays so having a white, conservative man talking in a way that might remind people of strict school teache Wow, some of the things I read about JP are so full of bitterness and vitriol it’s weird。 He’s a hypocrite and a drug taker selling basic advice so should be strung up? The pomposity makes me cringe。 I for one enjoy listening to him and quite enjoyed his last book。 The advice he gives clearly isn’t for everyone, after all we know that self entitlement and victim mentality reigns supreme nowadays so having a white, conservative man talking in a way that might remind people of strict school teachers or disciplinarian dads must be terrifying in itself。 Maybe that’s why the anger? Fear? “Please stop telling me to take responsibility man!!!”Anyway, lots of people really like him and what he says。 Believe it or not, lots of intelligent people of both sexes like him as well。 That’s isn’t of course a reason to like him。 I personally get put off just about anything popular。 I’m a lone wolf me。 Always made me own bed。 Cooked me own food。 Love exercising。 Never asked for a friend or begged to be accepted。 You know, I’m generally self satisfied really。 Think I’ll get that copy of his latest book reserved。 In all seriousness though I actually know some people who aren’t keen on him。 I actually love some of them and whilst we don’t always see eye to eye we are adult enough to get through that (most of the time without violence)。 To be fair they haven’t read and listened to him as much as me so I put it down to self entitlement and bitterness。 I reckon this is going to be a 4。5 star book。 You’re welcome 🧐 。。。more

Haven't read the book (as it isn't released yet), but watched JP's 2 hour lecture going over his 12 new rules。 As with his previous two books, I find the author to be a much better speaker than writer (not to say that he is a bad writer at all), so I won't be reading the book as I believe the lecture covers most of the big ideas anyways。 The rules and advice he distills are very valuable, but some of them are a bit cliché, and thus I'm giving it 4 stars。 Haven't read the book (as it isn't released yet), but watched JP's 2 hour lecture going over his 12 new rules。 As with his previous two books, I find the author to be a much better speaker than writer (not to say that he is a bad writer at all), so I won't be reading the book as I believe the lecture covers most of the big ideas anyways。 The rules and advice he distills are very valuable, but some of them are a bit cliché, and thus I'm giving it 4 stars。 。。。more

How is this grifter still a thing? Seriously? I'd really hoped Jordan Peterson's weird and cultish lobsterpeople army would disband and stop spamming their guru all over the place when he turned himself into a vegetable。 It appears, unfortunately, this isn't what's going to happen。 Jordan Peterson, regaining the use of his motor skills after his drug addictions left him in a coma, is back to give you more life advice!Taking self-help advice from Jordan Peterson at this point is like taking diet How is this grifter still a thing? Seriously? I'd really hoped Jordan Peterson's weird and cultish lobsterpeople army would disband and stop spamming their guru all over the place when he turned himself into a vegetable。 It appears, unfortunately, this isn't what's going to happen。 Jordan Peterson, regaining the use of his motor skills after his drug addictions left him in a coma, is back to give you more life advice!Taking self-help advice from Jordan Peterson at this point is like taking diet advice from Chris Christie。 Actually, it's like taking diet advice from Jordan Peterson and his Chaos Dragon daughter, Mikhaila。 All-beef diet? Because a glass of apple cider gave him a psychotic episode that lasted 25 days? No wonder he became depressed - can you imagine the constipation!? His self-help advice is so banal it's ludicrous。 Hey, clean your room guys! Stand up straight。。。wash your penis! Your mom probably gave you this advice during your childhood and she didn't charge you $25 for it。 But that's not really why he became famous。 Jordan Peterson is someone who defends the status quo by telling people they shouldn't criticize injustice in the world, instead they should worry about fixing their own imperfections。 He gave this advice as he was popping pills like Tic Tacs and going on diatribes about the downfall of western civilization (which is apparently due to crossdressing postmodern commies or whatever)。 Can people really not see this extraordinary hypocrisy? Apparently with Peterson it is rules for thee, but not for me。 This is a guy who stated during his interview with Cathy Newman that freedom of speech means the right to offend, but then Dr。 Free Speech goes and sues a university for $1。5 million because faculty criticized him during a meeting。Jordan Peterson offers those right-wing incel types the trappings of intellectualism for their bizarre movement。 At the end of the day it's nothing more than a veneer。 He's just a more articulate version of that crazy guy riding around with the "Obama Is A Marxist" bumper sticker。 Jordan Peterson's last book opened with multiple pages dedicated to using lobsters to make points about human nature。 That is, Peterson argued certain human behaviors, like hierarchies, are completely natural because lobsters also exhibit them。 But do you know what behavior lobsters exhibit which he failed to mention? They urinate on each other for greetings。 Which is how I recommend you greet Jordan Peterson if you ever come across him。 If he gets upset just tell him it's completely natural because lobsters do it。 。。。more
