Summary: Could contribute to change your life
Review: .
Tired? Depressed? Everything [is bad]?
Welcome to the club!Now just... read this book.
Short, refreshing and makes you think: Which is the best way to LIVE? I'm living, as I would like? If not, how can I change this? Some reviewers said, that it is insult to their intelligence. Really?
How about Saint-Exupéry's Little Prince? Or Richard Bach's Seagull? Or may other "child tales" which turn to be really adult? Remember: the life is not just learning, performance, fight etc. The art has it's own meaning and it is indispensable for life.
Just relax and maybe you can think about your life "out of box"... or labyrinth.

Summary: Buy the Parody instead!
Review: This is the [weakest] book ever written! If your boss ever hands out this book, brush up your resume, because as Mason Brown says in his parody, "Who Cut the Cheese?" this book is used like a parting gift, a businessman's turtlewax. The key idea of blithely accepting change might just as well be summed up as "resistance is futile!" ...

Summary: Change happens? No kidding.
Review: It amazes me how stating the obvious can lead to a hugely successful book. Hey, life is full of changes --- well, how about that? It isn't like this is a huge revelation to most people. We have all had our highs and lows; such is the human condition. What makes me regard this book as a pile of garbage is the idea that managers can somehow lull their hapless employees into some sort of reflective passivity just before dropping some bomb on them. I know that my first reaction, when my manager plopped this pile on my desk, was one of cynicism more than anything else. Trying to soften the blow, eh? If you are a manager looking to frighten or irritate employees, then this is the book for you. Also, the idea that "change" is something to be accepted as inevitable and part of the ebb and flow of life offends me. Should the Nazis have handed this book out at Auschwitz to the inmates as they entered the camp? "Arbeit Macht Frei" equals "Who Moved My Cheese" as far as I am concerned. Change may be inevitable, but it doesn't mean that sometimes you shouldn't fight like hell to keep change in its place.

Summary: A despicable insult!
Review: As part of a severence package - the esteemed VP's of my company included this book - needless to say most of the copies ended up in the trash. While the members of senior management floated away in their golden parachutes - the masses were left to ponder the movement of their cheese. My colleagues first response was to publish a response "The Cheese Stinks." Obviously the author of this slap in the face has no clue about the reality of pink slips, downsizing and layoffs. Furthermore, executives should think twice before giving this scrap paper as a sendoff gift.

Summary: Concise and practical
Review: An interesting and concise book, to instil a healthy mindset for change and management of expectations. The analogy is memorable. I strongly recommend an equally inspiring life-enhancing book, namely Emerson Lee's Time Honored wisdoms on Wealth creation......

Summary: Insulting to My Intelligence
Review: This book was a waste of my time and an insult to the intelligence of anyone over 8 years old, or 69 IQ points. Fortunately, it only wasted 30 minutes of my time, as it is so short it should rightfully be called a tract. A warning to employers: This book will not endear you to your staff! If you liken your employees to mice, they will return the favor, and liken you to a rat.

Summary: Who is Making All the Bread
Review: ... It is written on a first grade level. I feel if the reasons for change are logically presented and employees have some input into the ways changes are made most people will adapt very well. Change for change's sake is not always good.

Summary: This book is LIFE itself
Review: First of I all I'd really like not to criticize a few people who didn't like the book but to beg them to re-read it again as they must have missunderstood it or misread it completely - it will be worth it because to enjoy or understand a book we must be lucky enough to chose them in the right times. Every avid reader
would absolutely agree with this.
Anyways...
The very real thrust of this book is HOW TO COPE WITH A CHANGE in a most pleasant and most normal way so it is not a book about cheese.
Both writers are professionals when it comes to LIFE COACHING, they excel on it as they have detailed eyes for "invisible" forgotten facts that people tend to not see them - unfortunetaly-most of the times.
The book is so smartly created thanks to 4 characters whose names didn't happen by coincidence I think - 2 of which are mice and their names are Sniff and Scurry and two humans, Hem and Haw.
They all are in search of "Cheese"...but they're not all of the same "character" just as we aren't in the real life when it comes to look for the "CHEESE".
What happens?!? READ IT and I promise you'll end up treating this book as a TREASURE or a RARE JEWEL you'd like to give and share with everybody.
In the end, I think the best way to describe this book is if I said that THIS BOOK IS A MAP, A SIMPLE ONE, THAT'LL SHOW YOU THE QUICKEST AND SHORTEST WAY (no traffic lights in between) TO FINDING THE "CHEESE" YOU HAVE ALWAYS WANTED. And now..I'll let you Enjoy your magnificent trip to your Dreams...oops I meant to "YOUR CHEESE".

Summary: You Must Want To Change...
Review: It's that simple. This is a simple how-do-I change and how do I practively deal with change and the opportunities change provides. Read it. The writing is on the wall. We all have the opportunity to change. Who Moved My Cheese is about changing and finding new cheese. Your cheese is as only as big as the sky's limit.

Summary: The Authors Moved My Cheese !!
Review: A pretty simple concept written in a fictitious form talking about "Changes".... Don't fall into the trap with the name of the book, if you like cheese. I wonder why a book with such a simple concept, like this one, can turn into such a huge success (this pure means the number of copies sold and the money earned over the last few years). I even bought some 40+ copies for my staff and counterparts even before I finish reading it as a good friend advised me so. I swear I won't do this again without myself reading the book first. I definitely know now it's Spencer Johnson and Ken Blachard, the two authors, who moved by cheese BIG TIME !! I actually gave them a big loaf of my cheese. Do you want them to taste your cheese? It's your choice !!
