Summary: A good example of a book that should be burned¿.
Review: Let's cut to the chase. The message of this book is quite simple:
Change your current attitude and increase your productivity so that you will ad value to your company in the long run. In other words, all for the benefit of us (managers, CEOs, Bill Gates, etc.) at the expense of you, the employee (the tried and true 'profits over people' mentality rears its ugly head once again in corporate America). If the events of September 11 or the recent Enron affair haven't yet taught us that money and misguided "motivation" should NOT be the primary goals in life, I don't know what will.

Summary: The inhuman workplace
Review: This book should be titled "Chicken Soup For The Displaced Worker." With one exception: You get more depressed after you read it. If anyone hands you this book, tell them no thanks. I strongly agree with the reviewers who said that this is a book for clueless managers looking to jump on meaningless trends.

Summary: A good example of a book that should be burned?.
Review: While I personally would not endorse anyone to remain an employee, it's a fact that there are 4 types of people in the world of work - Employees, Self-Employed, Business Owners and Investors. Some people seem to choose to remain Employees, so this book will probably help them to be good at that. As for the rest of us, well, we know what to do.
