About this ebook
The inspirational sequel to 12 RULES FOR LIFE, which has sold over 10 million copies around the world - now in paperback
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 long-awaited 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.

Review copied from 12 rules as same applicable here. I have read both books. You are almost certain not to learn the things in these books from your friend circle, quite the contrary. Actually you might get this from your parents but they aren't too convincing to young adults like me earlier. Great book. Changed my life and put it in order. I was pursuing hedonism, chasing women and losing my individuality and reasoning of how to live life in the process, destroying my life till I discovered Jordan Peterson and my life has gone 180 degree and became more meaningful and orderly. Today I am very much mature with a family and an interest and appreciation of humanities I never had, all thanks to Jordan Peterson. I am certain there are many people like me. This book is a revelation, giving eternal truths without an aim to provoke but to enlighten. It is like a religious text, and I am a muslim.

Dr. Peterson helps millions make ourselves more honest, responsible and capable. Which the world needs. Most criticism is adjectives and falsehoods lacking reasons, from people attached to ideologies he challenges.
