Controversy Surrounding Jordan Peterson's Book Cover Quotes

TL;DR
Two critics have accused Jordan Peterson's book, Beyond Order, of using their reviews in a misleading way on its cover. The quotes from the Times and the New Statesman were selectively chosen, omitting negative aspects of the reviews. One critic called it a "gross misrepresentation" and demanded the removal of the quote. Another critic joked about the publisher's work in disguising a negative review. The matter raises questions about selective quoting in the publishing industry.
