Jordan Peterson's new book has landed in Amazon's top 10 bestseller list on pre-orders alone as it attracts attentionand controversyfour months ahead of its release. On Thursday morning, Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life was 9th in the online retailer's top 10 books. The sequel to Peterson's 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos is listed as the No 1 title in a number of Amazon subcategories, including applied psychology and health, fitness and dieting. The book will be released on March 2, 2021. In the introduction, Peterson writes: "I hope that people find this book as helpful personally, as they seem to have found the first set of 12 Rules. It has been a source of immense gratification that so many people have reported drawing strength from the thoughts and the stories I have had the privilege of bringing forth and sharing."

The book has already attracted controversy following reports that Penguin Random House Canada employees "were crying" in a town hall meeting after hearing that the company was to publish a title by the divisive psychologist. Peterson, who is embraced by some sections of the far right, has previously dismissed suggestions that "white privilege" exists, as well as speaking out against transgender activism and so-called social justice warriors.

He should write a book about getting schooled by Zizek, running away to Europe and getting hooked on benzos.

They don't give a shit. He violates leftist orthodoxy and must be denigrated.

Its kind of a shame that when someone does something as stupid as go to Russia for a dangerous detox procedure because nobody in North America is stupid enough to go through with it because you think you're smarter than the concept of western medicine and end up putting yourself in a coma for 8 months and catch COVID in the middle that they can come out perfectly fine and continue selling their schlock.

This dude's room isn't clean, why are we letting him write a self-help book? At least he was well put together when he wrote the first one.

Anyways, I read 12 Rules for Life. Just like in his lectures, he's very good at explaining core principles within evolution, psychology, and evolutionary psychology. And also, just like in his lectures, whenever he veers off into his own ideas about myths and starts invoking Jung, he gets cringeworthy. He also failed to discuss the ethics behind differences in male and female behavior and sexual dimorphism in general.

And you know, crabs, like lobsters, are actually just humans, and so you can just assume all their behavior and their neural substrates have 1 to 1 correspondence to the outward appearance of human behavior.

Holy shit, the salt in this topic over people buying some books. Re-evaluate your lives. It's pretty unhealthy to be that vindictive.
