Summary: change happens!
Review: I learned to accept changes as they happen, They keep moving the cheese! THis book is fairly simplistic but powerful, perfect for those with little time alotted for reading. Definitely a keeper, but beware, it does make some who cannot accept change very uncomfortable.

Summary: Haw-Haw
Review: This is a book everyone should read - especially teenagers who think they have all the answers. Even more especially the supervisors and executives that reject suggestions of subordinates because "it has always been this way". This book could be given to anyone and can relate to everyone. I loved it. Even if you only read the main story and skip the chatter at the end, although it brings the story into real life events, the book will be beneficial to you...

Summary: Profound, encouraging, entertaining
Review: This book is entertaining and guides the reader skillfully through the process of fearless change. Changes in the workplace, at home, in relationships, and so on. We're afraid of change, afraid of making decisions which could produce change. The author of this book explains in a good-old-friend like manner that we don't need to be afraid of changes. It's a comforting read and I would call it a stress-relief guide. Another book that I greatly appreciated in this regard, which is also extremely helpful is Dietmar Scherf's "I Love Me: Avoiding & Overcoming Depression."

Summary: Time and money well spent
Review: After reading the one star reviews it almost persuaded me from not reading this book, but a book doesn't get to be a best seller from nothing. America needs this story more than ever. Complacency is our enemy. Entitlement will be our downfall. Through the eyes of Hem and Haw, you will think, see members of your family, see your ancestors climbing on a boat to a new country, see countless co-workers. We can sit mindlessly in front of T.V.s for years of our lives, spend thousands of dollars on tons of junk, so whats the big deal! Its ten bucks and 30 minutes...time and money well spent. If you get nothing out of it...pat yourself on the back... you are blessed.

Summary: Superficial pop-psychology
Review: A superficial application of pop-psychology to the issue of dealing with change by means of an allegory concerning four small creatures trapped in a maze (life, tradition, circumstances) and needing cheese (meaning, significance, value, power, self-fulfillment). Hardly worth the 30 minutes it takes to read it and definitely not worth the expense.

Summary: Follow your cheese...
Review: I have listened to far better people than me try to intelligently explain this book to those who have not read it. All of them failed. This book must be read in order to be understood. I do not feel that it is the secret to the universe; or even to happiness. It probably would be helpful in giving some people perspective on their lives. I therefore recommend it. If nothing else, it is entertaining.

Summary: You can't be serious
Review: I honestly cannot believe people actually proclaim this the "best book I have ever read". It's possible the book is better than the audio CD, but I highly doubt it.
This entire book is an anectdote that is far from moving, insightful, or motivating. I found absolutely NO value in this story.

Summary: Who Moved My Cheese? - Madness
Review: Typical American psychoanalytical rubbish. Just get on with your lives, and stop reading about it. This man has made a fortune from gullible people. Don't buy any of his books - they are pointless to the degree of being offensive.

Summary: A Contemporary Classic
Review: Since childhood, I have thoroughly enjoyed fables of various kinds. They tell delightful stories, of course, but the best of them also illustrate some profoundly important ideas about human nature. Fables can be traced back to Egyptian papyri (about 1500 BC) and are later mentioned in the works of Hesiod (8th century BC). Those most famous are attributed to Aesop (6th century BC). I also admire the fables of La Fontaine, the great French fabulist of the 17th century. All this is mentioned by way of suggesting that Spencer Johnson writes within a long and distinguished literary tradition to which he has made an important contribution. Ken Blanchard provides "The Story Behind the Story" and then Johnson sets the scene at a "gathering" in Chicago attended by several classmates who have attended a high school reunion. One of them, Michael, admits to having had a fear of change. "When a big change came along in our business, we didn't know what to do." Then he heard "a funny little story that changed everything." He is urged to tell the story ("Who Moved My cheese?") and agrees to do so. "Once, long ago in a land far away, there lived four little characters who ran through a maze looking for cheese to nourish them and make them happy." Relax. l will say no more about fables nor about what can be found in this book. Rather, I include myself with countless others who have also read it, then re-read it several times, purchased copies for family members and friends as well as for business associates and (especially) for clients, and who will no doubt re-read it several more times. Until you read it, nothing anyone else says about it will make much sense. After you read it, so much more of your own life will make sense. Such is the enduring power of a great fable once it has been experienced.
