Publisher’s Summary
The companion volume to 12 Rules for Life offers further guidance on the perilous path of modern life.
In 12 Rules for Life, clinical psychologist and celebrated professor at Harvard and the University of Toronto Dr. Jordan B. Peterson helped millions of readers impose order on the chaos of their lives. Now, in this bold sequel, Peterson delivers twelve more lifesaving principles for resisting the exhausting toll that our desire to order the world inevitably takes.
In a time when the human will increasingly imposes itself over every sphere of life—from our social structures to our emotional states—Peterson warns that too much security is dangerous. What’s more, he offers strategies for overcoming the cultural, scientific, and psychological forces causing us to tend toward tyranny, and teaches us how to rely instead on our instinct to find meaning and purpose, even—and especially—when we find ourselves powerless.
While chaos, in excess, threatens us with instability and anxiety, unchecked order can petrify us into submission. Beyond Order provides a call to balance these two fundamental principles of reality itself, and guides us along the straight and narrow path that divides them.

What Audible Listeners Are Saying
5/5 stars — “Growing up “
This is the account of someone growing up, if his first book was the concept of a perfect life. This book is the reality of achieving the first books rules and how to apply them in the real world. This book oozes that of a wise person, not a a hopeful one— Gjergji Aliaj, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “THIS BOOK GO HARD “
YO, BRUH, THIS BOOK BRUH, THIS IS GOOD STUFF BRUH, CHANGE YO LIFE BRUH. Nah im kidding. I like Jordan B Peterson. Havent finished, but he goes hard.— JOsh, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “Balancing the Scale”
This book and the first 12 rules have become part of my course curriculum for undergraduate students. At the end of each semester the students express how much more prepared they feel to face their “dragons” head on. I accompany the reading with a modified version of Dr. Peterson’s future authoring program as my students are EFLs and are not ready for the full version. This is only possible because Dr. Peterson has provided the intellectual scaffolding needed to help the masses better understand all the theology, psychiatry, history and how we can more effectively apply it to our lives. I feel his work gives a clear why and how to live our lives to make tomorrow better than today and the timing seems perfect given the social political environment that is gripping many people, communities and sadly entire countries.— Amazon Customer, Audible listener
