Jordan Peterson: Beyond Order (2021, ALLEN LANE, Penguin Random House UK) 3 stars

Review of 'Beyond Order' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

His previous book and lectures talk about the same subject matter in an easier to follow manner.
JBP often draws analogs from biblical stories/myths, which I sometimes find far-fetched. The given examples from his own life and clinical practise resonate better with me.

"Explores the potential of psychedelics as medicine and the intersections of politics, science, and psychedelics"--

Review of 'Psychedelic medicine' on 'Goodreads'

1 star

It's literally a transcript of a talkshow. I guess maybe it might be alright as an introduction to the topic but even then there's better options which aren't written in a boring format. Every chapter talks about a different drug, but the content of each chapter is almost a carbon copy of the previous one.
