Required Reading!
Don't let the title fool you. This is NOT another 'quick fix' or 'three easy steps to become what you always dreamed'. This is MEATY stuff, but will provide deep insights and 'food for thought' into 'rules' to help deal with the chaos facing everyone living in the 21st century. Read the Forward, too; it will give you insight into the author, Jordan Peterson. I highly recommend this book to everyone, and have bought additional copies for family and friends. A MUST read.Read full review...

Conservative claptrap
The book is about making yourself feel better. Nothing about healing the world's problems. Very isolationist theology. Make yourself feel good and to hell with the rest of the world. When he actually talks about the science of neuroscience it is interesting but when he puts his belief system on top of that it is just conservative claptrap. Read full review...

Thought provoking, common sense and compelling read
I thought I was getting a book when I ordered this and was a little peeved that it was audio files/ebook files, but I am really enjoying listening to the audio book and following along in the ebook files. I love that the author does the narration. Very compelling and common sense content with amazing anecdotes and examples of the 12 rules ... very thought provoking!Read full review...

Depressed? Tired of hate? Read this book!
This is an easy to read book that everyone should read. The 12 rules are guidelines for living a happy meaningful life. Any living parent should read this book and raise their children by these principles. The world would be a better place for it.
Jordan Peterson is a breath of fresh air with clarity of thought and an intelligent approach to life. He is a psychologist with a scientific approach to the answers for the many problems facing the world today.Read full review...

A good source for personal growth: Ebay suggestion: "Lightweight with great features" (true I suppose)
Dr. Peterson's book is a wonderful source for basic wisdom and personal reflection. He bases his conclusions on personal experiences, authors and philosophers from the past and his time with individuals who he's assisted as a clinical psychologist.
[On a side and unrelated note, Ebay says of my 5 star rating, 'awesome sauce'. I would never ever ever never use this term to refer to anything unless I had a sauce on my plate to eat with a meal that is awesome.]
Lightweight and great features:
It only weighs 1lbs 7.4oz
It has art and titles to signify chapter progression
There are page numbers for reference purposes
Various thoughts and examples are divided into paragraphs to enhance the reader's comprehension and appreciation for Dr. Peterson's work
There's a nice jacket to keep the book in good condition

Good reading for sons
It is written slightly lengthy for our our time. Yet - Personal view: It is good reading, for sons, if conveyancing of common sense / values are desired. In line with the excellent knowledge, clear and easy to understand ( even for non- academic audience) delivery of his lectures.
I am looking forward to more literature from Prof. J. PetersonRead full review...

solid knowledge with excellent examples
Some chapters are 'heavy', some are 'light' - overall some very key important guidelines that the author has learned from his vast clinical experiences.

"Incredible description enhanced with extraordinary vocabulary"
Each step is compelling, even gripping in many instances. He brings out the passion of his work and his personal experiences using his own real life lessons. There was so much to absorb in one book.
