About the book

Jordan Peterson, a Canadian clinical psychologist and professor, offers a follow-up to his earlier rules-for-living volume. In twelve essays, each titled by a rule, he draws on episodes from his clinical practice to advise individuals on living well. Both books rest on his idea that chaos and order are the basic elements of reality, and that meaning comes from balancing them. Where the first book stresses the hazards of too much chaos, this one turns to the hazards of excessive structure, and Peterson describes its outlook as more liberal.
