Canadian clinicalpsychologist puts forth his ideas about personality,being,existence;the interconnectedness of order andchaos,two forces evident in all of life;the gender rolesassignment discourse;the source of the world'sgreatest evils,and many other controversial topics.  \nIt is refreshing,and sometimes confusing,how heweaves biblical accounts and characters into the tellingof his stories.But what might raise the hairs of mostare his views on political correctness regardingpostmodernism,white-privilege,culturalappropriation and everything in between.One thing isclear about Peterson.He is a man unapologetic of hisviews,which are largely unpopular,closelyconservative,and politically incorrect.  \nWhichever way it rubs off on you,this is one of thosebooks you cannot forget in a hurry.  \nRULE1:STAND UP STRAIGHTWITH YOUR SHOULDERSBACK  \nKEY TAKEAWAYS:  \n● Territory is linked to social status  \n·Every society has people that are in the toprung and those at the bottom  \n● We have the willpower to overcomeuncontrollable circumstances and placeourselves in our desired position  \n·A person's posture goes a long way indetermining the person's position
