Peterson has a solid foundation in many psychological ideas — and often presents them with power and depth. However, he mixes science with philosophy and personal beliefs, and for this reason, his work requires careful reading. It is not 'pure' psychology, it is a mixture – and as such, it has value but not infallible authority.

Archie burchi and loulas. The book is terrible. Read the 12 rules in summary. It will be better. The author is excessively verbose and full of associations that tire you out and make you lose the meaning. By the time you finish the chapter, you have forgotten the rule and cannot understand what it is at all. Give it a try. The only certain thing is that it is not a self-improvement book. Propagandistic perhaps, but not self-improvement. The author should stick to the 30-second to 1-minute videos on the internet. After all, there is competition in writing. Wasted money and free time

Jordan Peterson is one of those people that you either love or hate. The book is very good although it tends to drag a bit in its introductory examples before getting to the heart of each rule.
Having watched countless videos of his, I believe he is a better speaker than writer. Nevertheless, the book is a little treasure.

The book is amazing. I wish I had read this book at 20 or 25 instead of 30+. However, the translation is HORRIBLE. The translator seems to not understand the text, resulting in a word-for-word translation that makes no sense, of course. I wonder how the editor allowed this thing to be published. You have to read the same sentence over and over again and have listened to the author's relevant speeches to understand what he means from the context. I have read the book in English and, although it is by no means light reading, it still makes sense even to someone who is not familiar with academic texts. Therefore, if you know decent English, prefer the original. If not, you will forget your Greek.

In several points it becomes a little tiresome. The author repeats himself! In general, it keeps your interest until the end. Maybe you will understand it better with a second reading.

I give it 4 out of 5 stars because personally, I found it a bit difficult to read. Compared to other self-improvement books I have read, this was one of the most challenging. I will definitely read it again to better understand what it says.

I admire Jordan Peterson, but I don't believe I will love this book until I can understand it better.
