The #1 Sunday Times bestseller from 'the most influential public intellectual in the Western world right now' (New York Times) - now in paperback.
How should we live properly in a world of chaos and uncertainty?
Jordan Peterson has helped millions of people, young and old, men and women, aim at a life of responsibility and meaning. Now he can help you.
Drawing on his own work as a clinical psychologist and on lessons from humanity's oldest myths and stories, Peterson offers twelve profound and realistic principles to live by. After all, as he reminds us, we each have a vital role to play in the unfolding destiny of the world.
Deep, rewarding and enlightening, 12 Rules for Life is a lifeboat built solidly for stormy seas: ancient wisdom applied to our contemporary problems.
A celebration of our female friendships, of our messy years, and of growing up together. Glittering with wit, heart, and humour, its a book to share with every woman youve ever been lucky enough to call a friend.
Nearly everything I know about love, I've learnt from my long-term friendships with women.
I know that love can be loud and jubilant. It can be dancing in the swampy mud and the pouring rain at a festival and shouting YOU ARE AMAZING over the band. Its laughing until you wheeze. Its walking along the street together on a Saturday night and feeling an entire city is yours.
I also know that love is a pretty quiet thing. Its lying on the sofa together drinking coffee, talking about where youre going to go that morning to drink more coffee. Its folding down pages of books you think theyd find interesting.
I know that love happens under the splendour of fireworks and sunsets, but also happens when youre lying on blow-up airbeds in a childhood bedroom, sitting in A&E or in the queue for a passport.

'In the first minute following her death, Tequila Leila's consciousness began to ebb, slowly and steadily, like a tide receding from the shore. Her brain cells, having run out of blood, were now completely deprived of oxygen. But they did not shut down. Not right away...'
For Leila, each minute after her death brings a sensuous memory: the taste of spiced goat stew, sacrificed by her father to celebrate the long-awaited birth of a son; the sight of bubbling vats of lemon and sugar which women use to wax their legs while men attend mosque; the scent of cardamom coffee that she shares with a handsome student in the brothel where she works. Each memory, too, recalls the friends Leila made at each key moment in her life friends who are now desperately trying to find her. . .

Happiness is just around the corner with this practical guide from happiness researcher Meik Wiking
Meik Wiking understands happiness better than anyone. In his role as Founder and CEO of the world's only Happiness Research Institute, he has travelled the globe interviewing the world's happiest people to discover the key components of happiness.
In The Key to Happiness, Meik explores the hidden treasures which can improve your happiness, and divides them into the six building blocks of happiness; togetherness, money, health, kindness, trust and freedom. For each happiness block he offers practical tips: for togetherness he encourages setting up a mini-library in your apartment building or starting a tool-sharing programme in your street; for kindness he suggests leaving a surprise gift on a stranger's doorstep, helping a tourist find their way or telling someone who means a lot to you that they do.
Drawing on social science, case studies and Meik's original research, this practical guide shows us that you can find happiness in a simple way of life. While Meik has travelled across the globe to discover the secrets of the world's happiest people, this book shows us that you can be just as happy where you are.
This book is the perfect guide on how to survive and navigate the modern world with a smile on your face.
""An inspiring and highly engaging exploration of what really makes us happy, all underpinned by the latest research"" Dr Mark Williamson Director of Action for Happiness
