I wouldn't call 12 Rules particularly "deep" in content, it's mostly anecdotal stories, bible quotes, and Christian Conservatism.

- gallerdude 8y agoNot sure I agree. Peterson is definitely controversial, and his political side is worth ignoring. But foundationally, the book is about the foundations of living a meaningful life and self improvement. And not that shallow sort of self improvement, it’s the real hero’s journey stuff.
- MadSudaca 8y agoWhile sometimes the bible quotes went too far for my taste, I wouldn't say it's not deep. One thing it did for me is help me see religion in a new light. Religion is a constant in most (all?) human societies, this book helped me understand why.
- rgrieselhuber 8y agoThat's assuming a very loose definition of Christian Conservatism.
