Note(s) : Notes bibliogr.
Jordan Peterson rocketed to fame in the 2010s and has preached on everything from
the evils of postmodern neo-Marxism to the mating habits of lobsters ever since then.
The Left has since leveled many criticisms about the Canadian psychologist, characterizing
him as everything from an apologist for the alt-right to simply not being interesting
or profound. Myth and Mayhem: A Leftist Critique of Jordan Peterson is intended as
a comprehensive critical look at all aspects of his thought, from the philosophical
depths to the mundane heights. Written by four authors who each look at a different
element of his thought, it shows why taking Peterson seriously doesn't mean embracing
him. Includes an introduction by Slavoj Žižek
