Jordan Peterson

    12 de junio de 1962

    Este autor profundiza en la psicología de las creencias religiosas e ideológicas, así como en la evaluación y mejora de la personalidad y el rendimiento. Su obra temprana examinó la estructura de los sistemas de creencias y los mitos, y su papel en la regulación de las emociones, la creación de significado y la motivación para el genocidio. Impregna sus perspicaces obras con exploraciones de la arquitectura de la creencia y los fundamentos psicológicos del comportamiento humano. Sus análisis a menudo trascienden los límites disciplinarios para iluminar los complejos mecanismos que dan forma a la psique individual y colectiva.

      ¿Cuáles son las reglas esenciales para vivir que todos deberíamos conocer? Regla n.° 1: mantente erguido con los hombros hacia atrás…, como las langostas; regla n.° 8: di la verdad, o por lo menos no mientas; regla n.° 11: deja en paz a los niños que andan en patineta; regla n.° 12: cuando te encuentres a un gato en la calle, acarícialo. Jordan Peterson, «el pensador más polémico e influyente de nuestro tiempo», según el Spectator, nos propone un apasionante viaje por la historia de las ideas y de la ciencia —desde las tradiciones antiguas a los últimos descubrimientos científicos— para tratar de responder a una pregunta esencial: qué información básica necesitamos para vivir en plenitud. Con humor, amenidad y espíritu divulgativo, Peterson recorre países, tiempos y culturas al mismo tiempo que reflexiona sobre conceptos como la aventura, la disciplina y la responsabilidad. Todo con el fin de desgranar el saber humano en doce hondas y prácticas reglas para la vida que rompen radicalmente con los lugares comunes de la corrección política.

    • 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.

      Why have people from different cultures and eras formulated myths and stories with similar structures? What does this similarity tell us about the mind, morality, and structure of the world itself? Jordan Peterson offers a provocative new hypothesis that explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what rituals, myths, and religious stories have long narrated. A cutting-edge work that brings together neuropsychology, cognitive science, and Freudian and Jungian approaches to mythology and narrative, Maps of Meaning presents a rich theory that makes the wisdom and meaning of myth accessible to the critical modern mind.

      ‘Without free speech there is no true thought.’ –Jordan Peterson‘You’re telling me I’m being sensitive, and students looking for safe spaces that they’re being hypersensitive. If you’re white, this country is one giant safe space.’–Michael Eric DysonIs political correctness an enemy of free speech, open debate and the free exchange of ideas? Or is it a progressive force, eroding the dominant power relationships and social norms that exclude marginalised groups from society?

      Lidé různých kultur i dob si vyprávějí mýty a příběhy. Čím to je, že tato vyprávění mají tak podobnou strukturu? Co to vypovídá o lidské mysli, morálce i o světě vůbec? Jordan Peterson ve své první knize (1999) zkoumá spojitost mezi tím, co nám moderní neuropsychologie říká o mozku, a tím, co je obsaženo v rituálech, mýtech a náboženských příbězích. Mapy smyslu jsou prací, která spojuje neuropsychologii, kognitivní vědu a freudovský i jungovský přístup k mytologii a vyprávění, a buduje mnohovrstevnatou teorii, která moudrost a smysl obsažené v mýtech zprostředkuje kritické mysli moderního člověka.
