Jordan B. Peterson
Jordan B. Peterson grew up and was toughened in the frozen wilderness of Northern Alberta, Canada. He has performed daring stunts in a carbon-fiber airplane, explored a meteor crater in Arizona alongside astronauts, and built a ceremonial Native American lodge on the upper floor of his home in Toronto after being made a member of the Kwagu’l tribe. He has taught mythology to lawyers, doctors, and businesspeople, served as an advisor to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, helped his patients confront depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, and schizophrenia, acted as a consultant to major law firms in Canada, and delivered numerous lectures across North America and Europe. In collaboration with his students and colleagues from Harvard and the University of Toronto, Dr. Peterson has published over a hundred scientific papers, transforming the modern understanding of personality, while his book Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief revolutionized the psychology of religion. He lives in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
