ExecutiveGrowth Summaries

12 Rules for Life became a #1 National & International Bestseller for a simple reason…
(Please Note: This is a SUMMARY of Jordan B Peterson’s, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos)
Dr. Peterson unearths archetypal principles that shape our lives. He first observes that Order and Chaos are the two primordial forces of the Cosmos. Chaos is the realm of limitless possibilities, unsuitable for life. Order, on the other hand, is the world of rules, predictability, explanations, science, and conformity.
In the 12 Rules for Life, Dr. Peterson offers a roadmap to navigate these polar forces. The antidote to chaos is not merely order – it comes down to understanding the subtleties of life, realizing that virtue lies in the balance of the two extremes, and developing your own skills at the game.
Each Rule for Life will challenge you to examine your own approach to life and answer some tough questions about why you're living the way you do. It is only by transcending our own limitations that life becomes meaningful and rewarding.
Who will benefit from this book?
Whether you are an over-achiever burning through life, an under-achiever with perpetual overwhelm, or an intellectual seeking deeper truths of human nature, this audiobook is for you.
The 12 Rules cover a broad spectrum where you will find advice on how to manage your thoughts and emotions, how to thrive, how to get along with others, and how to find a greater sense of meaning in life.

Carrie Kills A Man - A Memoir

Carrie Marshall

Carrie Kills A Man* is about growing up in a world that doesn't want you, and about how it feels to throw a hand grenade into a perfect life. It's the story of how a tattooed transgender rock singer killed a depressed suburban dad, and of the lessons you learn when you renounce all your privilege and power.

When more people think they've seen a ghost than met a trans person, it's easy for bad actors to exploit that – and they do, as you can see from the headlines and online. But here's the reality, from someone who's living it. From coming out and navigating trans parenthood to the thrills of gender-bending pop stars, fashion disasters and looking like Velma Dinkley, this is a tale of ripping it up and starting again: Carrie's story in all its fearless, frank and funny glory.

*"Spoiler: That man was me." – Carrie
"Nasty & funny! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED." - Patton Oswalt

Cannibal Capitalism - How our...

Nancy Fraser

A trenchant look at contemporary capitalism's insatiable appetite—and a rallying cry for everyone who wants to stop it from devouring our world 
 
 
 
Capital is currently cannibalizing every sphere of life—guzzling wealth from nature and racialized populations, sucking up our ability to care for each other, and gutting the practice of politics. In this tightly argued and urgent volume, leading Marxist feminist theorist Nancy Fraser charts the voracious appetite of capital, tracking it from crisis point to crisis point, from ecological devastation to the collapse of democracy, from racial violence to the devaluing of care work. These crisis points all come to a head in Covid-19, which Fraser argues can help us envision the resistance we need to end the feeding frenzy. 
 
 
 
What we need, she argues, is a wide-ranging socialist movement that can recognize the rapaciousness of capital—and starve it to death.

Empire Rewritten

Santiago Machain

What if Alexander the Great never died in Babylon? 
Empire Rewritten reimagines a world where the most brilliant conqueror of the ancient world lives on—and reshapes everything. From surviving the fever that took him in his prime, to confronting rebellion in Greece and forging a global army, this book explores the turning point of a life extended and a history rewritten. 
This is not dry historical theory. It's living, breathing storytelling—deeply human, yet rich with global vision. With immersive characters, geopolitical stakes, and a reimagined ancient world pulsing with possibility, Empire Rewritten is the beginning of an epic journey that spans not just continents—but ideas. 
This first book covers Alexander's survival, the renewed Persian dream, his growing spiritual aura, the resistance from within Greece, and his deeper dive into unifying cultures by choice, not force. This is where myth meets the realpolitik of empire—and a different future begins.
