In an era of unprecedented change and polarizing politics, clinical psychologist Jordan Peterson offers a message of individual responsibility and ancient wisdom as an antidote to chaos.

Instead, we must search for meaning, not for its own sake, but as a defence against the suffering that is intrinsic to existence.
