Summary: Who Moved My Cheese?
Review: The book "Who Moved My Cheese" is a lighthearted yet practical look at how to handle life's changing landscape. The four characters in the book, having found a seemingly unlimited supply of cheese, live for some time basking in their glory. Suddenly, it is no longer there. What to do? The two mouse characters simply move on in search of new cheese. The two "human-like" characters however, fret and ponder and complain about how unfair life is. One of them finally strikes out on a quest for new cheese and consequently on a journey of self-discovery, leaving the other one that insists on being left behind. During his journey he discovers that through complacency he and the other mouse missed some telltale signs that things were not as good as they had assumed. "If we had been more aware", the character muses "we would have noticed that the cheese was getting old and moldy for some time and it was disappearing slowly and not all at once as we thought." This theme of awareness and giving attention to your life calls to mind one of my favorite books: "Working on Yourself Doesn't Work" by Ariel and Shya Kane. In it the authors explore how to become fully present in your life and live each moment to its fullest. I highly recommend it for those who want an even deeper understanding of how to live a full and satisfying life.

Summary: LIKE EATING MOLDY KRAFT MACARONI
Review: I'm so glad others out there despise this book as much as I. It was given to all employees at my company a month before we were told no one was getting an annual bonus this year. (Coincidence? I think not.) Our CEO claimed it was the best thing he's ever read. Ever feel like you work for an idiot? This book is downright demoralizing and depressing when it's given to you by a company you slave 8-5 for everyday. They must think we have the intelligence of bridge trolls. I hated the message of this book so much, and the condescending stupidity it connotates that I actually burned it at a keg party the following weekend. The scary part? IT WOULDN'T BURN! We had to set it on fire so many times we gave up and threw it in the trash. The one positive was that after reading it I felt smarter than our management team and know now that someday, all the people who hate this book will come together to crush the cheese lovers. Oh yeah.

Summary: A bit to trivial
Review: Even for its modest price, this book contains only very little content. All you need to know can be summarized on one page; in fact the author has just done that. Everything around that one page contains a not very interesting story.

Summary: Simple Idea, But Worth Reading
Review: Blanchard takes a simple idea and has created a nice metaphor for us to remember it. And we should remember it. The GREAT thing about this book is that it is easy and fast to read. In today's increasingly fast-paced world, every ounce of time we have is squeezed. It is easy to lose focus because there is so much trying to get our attention. At work and at home. At the same time, I have a hard time recommending a book that covers this little for a whopping [$$$]. Additionally, I am a little peeved with all of these 60-second 'management' books and techniques. They cannot possibly cover what is needed to be good at anything. Then I began to realize that books with oodles of information are generally harder to read because you have to think so much about the content. There is almost too much good information in really good books. So, I now appreciate these tiny books that convey information in a way that we can assimilate easily. My recommendation -- buy the book and read it once in a while. It is worth having on your shelf. It helps keep the right perspective on things and won't take a lot of time. Just buy a used copy!

Summary: Utterly redundant
Review: This has to be the most obvious book I've seen since I was in Kindergarten. In fact, it's far less interesting than that. When I picked it up and began to read, I was sure that it was a joke. If there is a lesson in Who Moved My Cheese that you haven't yet picked up through living your life, this book is not going to teach you. I am not diminishing the message at all (go with the flow, keep trying), just the patronizing method of delivery.

Summary: Can't hurt.
Review: The book was recommended to me by 3 different people - a speaker at a seminar, a manager at the company where I worked, and later an employee of the Department of Labor. It really can be read in an hour, and I read very slowly. It is so popular with management, it could be useful in an interview to mention that you have read it, especially if you have been laid off. I didn't think it was great (just okay), but the point it makes is good, and it is painless reading. Can't hurt.

Summary: Keep this one on your bookshelf
Review: A friend gave me his copy of this book about a year ago when I was going through a really difficult time & didn't want to deal with what was happening to me. This book was a good starting point in helping me to realize that although it can initially be painful and challenging, change is good & even necessary & we shouldn't be so afraid of it. It gets 4 stars, though, because it makes adjusting to change seem like a very easy & simple task, but realistically, it is often very difficult to adjust to change and it can take a long time to adjust regardless of how open minded you are to the twists & turns that life gives you. Overall, it is a really good, helpful book & everyone should have a chance to read it.

Summary: A great book that helps to MANAGE your attitude.
Review: This is a great book that helps to handle CHANGE by managing your attitude.I remember reading somewhere that "LIFE is 10% of what happens to me and 90% how I react to it." This book dwells upon that 90%.It helps us to filter out the unwanted thoughts and look sharp in the eyes of the reality.It helps in understanding 'Who you are?' and 'Why you are the way you are?'.
LIFE is a big choice and this book helps us in choosing better.
I read this book in last June.I found many do not give much attention to the contents of this book.But I realised that each and every sentence written is full of meaning.In life there are so many complex choices we have to make and identifying 'WHEN THE CHEESE IS MOVED?' is very important.But first we need to identify 'WHAT IS THE CHEESE?'. In many situations it is not that easy to answer these two questions and hence people say LIFE is difficult.This book helps in reducing those difficulties to minimal and get along with the LIFE.

Summary: Who moved my cheese?
Review: My review on this story is to tell people that you are not suppose to wait for thing to come to you, you have to go toward it. It also teaches ( I think) that, sometimes someone might have the same idea as you but you might need to make up an idea that you can do that would be complicated or hard that someone else can't do.
