“Read this book, strengthen your resolve, and help us all return to reason.” —JORDAN PETERSON

There’s a war against truth … and if we don’t win it, intellectual freedom will be a casualty.

The West’s commitment to freedom, reason, and true liberalism have become endangered by a series of viral forces in our society today. Renowned host of the popular YouTube show The Saad Truth, Dr. Gad Saad exposes how an epidemic of idea pathogens are spreading like a virus and killing common sense in the West.

Serving as a powerful follow-up to Jordan Peterson’s book 12 Rules for Life, Dr. Saad unpacks what is really happening in progressive safe zones, why we need to be paying more attention to these trends, and what we must do to stop the spread of dangerous thinking. A professor at Concordia University who has witnessed this troubling epidemic first-hand, Dr. Saad dissects a multitude of these concerning forces (corrupt thought patterns, belief systems, attitudes, etc.) that have given rise to a stifling political correctness in our society and how these have created serious consequences that must be remedied—before it’s too late.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great book that explores the bias of conventional thought processes that is traditional on university campuses. Important for social scientists to consider to create a more open-minded and inclusive environment

I love this man. I first heard him on Joe Rogan’s show. He speaks with such tenacity. One of the few left that are willing to stand up to this nonsense. We all have to check our minds for parasitic ideology. Great listen!

Very well written in a language you don't have to be a scholar to understand.
Gad Saad is a voice of reason in the confusing world of political correctness basing his arguments on science, research and studies.
However the negative part of this audiobook experience is that they did not have the professor to read his own words.

Gad did an excellent work to keep the reader engaged with humerous examples while also conveying both heavy and hard truths backed by research to the reader.

Exceedingly insightful

If you ever felt like something is going VERY wrong in western culture, Gad Saad does a brilliant job of describing exactly what that thing is.

Witty, satirical and VERY IMPORTANT!
