Summary: Good Concepts, but...
Review: My boss recently gave me this book to read along with another motivational book (Fish!) as a way to boost morale in our small business. However, the book made me realize that our office is "old and moldy cheese" and that I should probably get past my fear of failure and go in search of "new cheese." The simple story was easy to relate to and I could find myself (and other coworkers) in the characters. Too bad for my boss, but the book has given me a new confidence in myself. If I could sum it up in one phrase, it would be "What would you do if you weren't afraid?"

Summary: Grasp the MEANING; Don't JUST read the words.
Review: My advice is simple: Try this book. Its a one-hour read. However, don't undertake this task while your brain is relaxing. Those that don't take something away from this book are either unfocused or require that a book meet the "weight test" to measure up. Don't allow yourself to be fooled.Sure, this book's "story" is about 4 rodents, a maze and their quest for cheese. But the concept is much, much deeper. Personally and professionally, the concept rings true. Those looking for the easy path, the "tried-and-true" path, the concrete path, will never reach new heights. The book's parable leads the reader through the maze that is life, again, your personal or professional life. I'll not go any further with the concept or the story as I believe each reader should experience the book and decide unilaterally. A warning: be prepared to THINK and focus on the concept. You'll not be disappointed. I'm buying the calendar for each one of my employees in the same fashion that I bought a copy of the book for each of them.

Summary: Everyone should read this book. Period.
Review: This is a very short book, less than 100 pages in very large type. I was able to read it in about an hour. The message contained therein is very simple and direct - Change comes into all our lives, whether we like it or not. If you don't change, you will be left behind. In order to succeed at whatever it is we want to succeed at, you have to anticipate change and be prepared to make changes to your own life to keep up. You'd think a message like this would be a no-brainer, and for some people it is. But it's amazing how many people resist change. You all know what I'm talking about - we have all met people who absolutely refuse to do things a new way because "We've always done it this way." Never mind that the new way is faster, easier, and cheaper, they want to do it the old way no matter what. The author could have made this point in one page, but it would have not have had the impact that this book has. The author cleverly has turned his point into a small story concerning four small characters, stuck in a maze. These four characters live off a supply of cheese in the maze. One day, suddenly, the cheese is gone. The reactions of the four characters to this unexpected change in their lives is what makes up the lesson of the book. (...) We've all known people like these four, and I think another reason for the author writing the story in the way he has is to use arcetypal examples that we can all relate to real people in our lives. It's an effective device, and makes the book translate to our own lives that much better. Overall, a first-rate book. It should be required reading for all young people. Don't listen to all the "Hem"s out there. Pick this one up!

Summary: Premise flaw dooms this book...
Review: The fatal flaw of "Who Moved My Cheese" consists in the fact that at no time is the maze in which the characters run viewed as being dangerous. Without this factored into the allegory, it bears no resemblance to real life. Therefore, it cannot be applied effectively. People are often hurt in the maze of life attempting to get from one point to another. If that element of life could be removed, then life becomes as simple as the story in Johnson & Blanchard's book.

Summary: Good book for a traveling day...
Review: Easy to read, funny, and it has a great message: Move with the Cheese (Move with the change).
At the end it's the same that everyone is tired to hear: Change; but, in this book, we find a very simple example of how we can find out when to change and how to do it.

Summary: Spend in acquiring knowldege
Review: I have read this book last week and take around 2 days to finish it. I have found it have a great insight. In this book, "CHEESE" is a metaphor for what we want to have in life, whether it is a job, a relationship, spiritual peace or even an activity like jogging. Each of us has our own idea of what cheese is, and we pursue it because we believe it make us happy. I also think in this information age, the Information, Technology and Communication which threaten my current position. This because future direction it more towards virtual or wireless transition which enable computer to perform all the task. For instance nowadays the revolution of the "E", i.e E-Commerce, E-Learning..etc takes almost all the conventional way of doing things. So, PREPARED FOR CHANGE.....!!!

Review: I thought this book was a very interesting way to see "change" from a diffrent perspective. I loved it. I now see and understand myself a little bit better than I ever have. I have been able to recognize my behavior and what I need to do to help myself understand and not "fight" change...Really good book!!!

Summary: Good Advice
Review: The beauty of this book is that it you already know all of the principles it contains. They are so basic, however, that we never think about them. As the author convincingly conveys, our lives would be easier if we did keep these principles in mind. It's a very short book (I read it in about an hour) and it is well worth the read.
