Description
Jordan B. Peterson’s Maps of Meaning is now available for the first time as an audio download! Why have people from different cultures and eras formulated myths and stories with similar structures? What does this similarity tell us about the mind, morality, and structure of the world itself? From the author of 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos comes a provocative hypothesis that explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what rituals, myths, and religious stories have long narrated. A cutting-edge work that brings together neuropsychology, cognitive science, and Freudian and Jungian approaches to mythology and narrative, Maps of Meaning presents a rich theory that makes the wisdom and meaning of myth accessible to the critical modern mind.Editorial ReviewsReview”The book reflects its author’s profound moral sense and vast erudition in areas ranging from clinical psychology to scripture and a good deal of personal soul-searching and experience…with patients who include prisoners, alcoholics and the mentally ill.”-Montreal Gazette “This is not a book to be abstracted and summarized. Rather it should be read at leisure…and employed as a stimulus and reference to expand one’s own maps of meaning. I plan to return to Peterson’s musings and mapping many times over the next few years.”-“Am J Psychiatry …”a brilliant enlargement of our understanding of human motivation…a beautiful work.”-Sheldon H. White, Harvard University …”unique…a brilliant new synthesis of the meaning of mythologies and our human need to relate in story form the deep structure of our experiences.”-Keith Oatley, University of Toronto From the Inside FlapWhy would people in different places and times formulate myths and stories with similar symbols and meanings? Are groups of people with different religious or ideological beliefs doomed to eternal conflict? Are the claims of science and religion truly irreconcilable? What might be done to decrease the individual propensity for group-fostered cruelty? Maps of Meaning addresses these questions with a provocative new hypothesis that explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what rituals, myths and religious stories have long narrated. Peterson’s ambitious interdisciplinary odyssey draws insights from the worlds of religion, cognitive science and Jungian approaches to mythology and narrative. Maps of Meaning offers a critical guide to the riches of archaic and modern thought and invaluable insights into human motivation and cognition.Audible AudiobookListening Length: 30 hours and 52 minutesProgram Type: AudiobookVersion: UnabridgedFile Size: 6598 KBPrint Length: 576 pagesPublisher: Routledge; 1 edition (September 11, 2002)http://www.amazon.com/Maps-of-Meaning/dp/B07B5KMGPG/ref=mt_a…Video + PDF Here:
