Really shitty that you censor your comment section - having read one of your books on the back of your suggestion, I commented how awful it was, you thus removed it accordingly. I have noticed you do this a lot. You don't honestly engage on here - I really think it's important for people to know how dishonest you really are. I also understand that you employ a company to get you subscribers from "fake" youtube accounts to encourage others to sub to you to through herd mentality - it's pretty disgustingly dishonest behaviour and it's been reported to youtube.

Great book, was my number 1 until I read The blank slate by Steven Pinker. I would recommend reading A conflict of visions first still. The blank slate actually makes heavy reference to A conflict of visions in one chapter. It is essentially a systematic deconstruction of many myths, misconceptions and anti-scientific beliefs about human nature, that plague our society, including the 'unconstrained vision' of human nature. Written by one of the most well regarded experimental psychologists (more scientist, less social scientist) in the world. Reading it will make you realise that science has already largely moved past so many things that we waste our time arguing about. The evidence is in, and for many people, it won't be what you expect.

I am pleased to hear Alfred Lansing's book "Endurance" get a recommendation. As it was written mid last century the tale is told with restraint by Alfred Lansing and he actually sat down with the survivors to pen their incredible story. It is not just a survival tale, but a window into the understated heroism that was baked into men back then. Their endurance is admirable, but to do so while remaining gentleman is very moving to read about.

And how susceptable are they to doing evil or at best doing nothing in the face of evil actions. To best illustrate the point, and understand why these traits aren't necessarily bad, the following books are the ones to read: 1. The Lucifer effect by Philip Zimbardo 2. The righteous mind by Jonathan Haidt 3. Tribe by Sebastian Junger And 4. The classic: The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Why do people believe low-value information such as rumors? Why are there religions? What is social justice? What explains morality?" It very clearly explored these questions in a way that put so much more into perspective and left me feeling like I could do pattern recognition on and understand board social topics that I never thought could have a coherent narrative.

Hey Chris, thanks for making that list. I will definitely check out some of those books. I'm currently reading 12 Rules for Life, as everyone and their mother has, which we all know is a deeply religious book with some tongue-in-cheek paragraphs sprinkled over the chapters. However, most people overlook Peterson's first book, which is much more difficult to read. It's currently lying on my desk and I've already dipped into it: Maps of Meaning. I, like many others of my generation, was an atheist since I was a toddler. I cursed God for everything wrong in my life (and I had good reason to, as I had experienced the most traumatic things a human can experience by the age of 4, including the loss of the most important person in my life and being sexually abused by the people supposed to take care of me) and turned away from Him. Maps of Meaning breaks down the neuro-psychology of religion and I reckon it's the most important read for any atheist. It's not accessible at all. For one, you can grapple with the ideas of a single paragraph in that book for hours. And secondly, it's not affordable; I borrowed a copy from the library of my university, but for everyone else it can be hard to get by a copy of that book, as it is primarily aimed at an academic audience. But if you can easily get by a copy and you're an atheist, that book will probably be the most important thing you'll ever read in your life. Cheers. Edit: The full PDF version of Maps of Meaning is linked below the Wikipedia article, if you don't mind reading the book off of a screen.

Ever wondered how to fully understand and heal your own neurotic parts? An author who absolutely deserves to be known and READ : David Richo, Jungian author and therapist. All his books are incredible gems, but I still recommend to all my students and my clients the first one I ever read by him : HOW TO BE AN ADULT. Slim book, absolutely not repetitive, straight to the essential and with super helpful tables to see juxtaposed the neurotic and the sane responses. It’s however far from a simple ‘how to’ book. Life transforming indeed!

I finished the audiobook a few weeks ago. I highly recommend it - it is fun, and does things that a paper book can't do.

That part about "Turning Pro" hits me hard. It is so tempting to give just 40% and expect to be successful. Today's world makes this so easy to believe. Just look on KZbin and your're a Master. NO. I recommend Robert Greene's book "Mastery". I recommend anything by him actually. I didn't like him at the start, but after reading his books, reflecting upon them, and putting his 'laws' into action, you see the guy is a genius. Though I do think it helps that he spends countless hours researching each book. He is the definition of a professional in my opinion.

Suggestion? Photographer Yushito Matsushige's personal account of surviving the Atomic Bombing of *Hiroshima* may have been the logical choice for the inquiring mind after reading Highlander.

Long walk to freedom I'm finding inspirational rite now. New favourite quote from that book is someone asking Nelson to do something, Nelson said Im not in the mood. The chief said to him moods are for cattle.

Too shallow. If you Trully want to know why we do what we do, you should dive into energy healing. 'Letting Go' by David Hawking is a good start. 'Emotion Code' by Brad Nelson is a good follow. Or read and apply them together. GL

Good list & I agree with Essentialism. The rest I haven’t read I yet. Off the top, for me some books would be Richest Man in Babylon, Principals by Ray Dalio, Ready for Anything by David Allen of GTD fame, The Art of the Good Life by Rolf Dobelli
