FORMAT Compact Disc LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Jordan B. Peterson is a Professor of psychology at the University of Toronto. Raised in the frigid wastelands of Northern Alberta, he has flown a hammer-head roll in a carbon-fiber stunt-plane, and built a Kwagul ceremonial bighouse on the upper floor of his Toronto home after being invited into and named by that Canadian First Nation. Hes taught mythology to lawyers, doctors and business people, consulted for the UN Secretary General, helped his clinical clients manage depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder and anxiety, and lectured extensively in North America and Europe. With his students and colleagues, Dr. Peterson has published over a hundred scientific papers, and his book Maps of Meaning revolutionized the psychology of religion. Formerly a professor at Harvard University, he was nominated for its prestigious Levenson Teaching Prize. Review Genuinely extraordinary... Unmatched by any other modern thinker ...
