 Short, Simple, EffectiveSep 05, 2010
A great book that shows that short books can be among the most effective. Sure, it is simple, and sometimes seems obvious. But sometimes it helps to take a seemingly obvious concept and twist it around a bit, show it in a new context, and reflect on it differently. The book achieved its great popularity for a reason. For people dealing with a period of unwanted change, it can be very encouraging.
-- Doug Warshauer, Author of If I'm So Smart Where Did All My Money Go: Balancing Your Financial Objectives for Lasting Wealth
Great book for dealing with change!Sep 03, 2010
This book was a great read. We purchased several of them for employees in our company who have difficulty dealing with the ever changing corporate environment. All of the employees got something out of the book, and a few said it would help them deal with changes in their personal lives as well.
Book was well written, easy to understand, and we loved the story!
 A mindless bookAug 20, 2010
This is a mindless book - it assumes (1) all change is good, and (2) that you are better off if you adapt to it quickly. Not all change in life is like the shifting cheese in a maze described by the book; in fact, I'd say most change is NOT like that.
The simplistic view it holds is rather patronizing, but worse is if you actually try to base your life on this philosophy. It's not wise to do so. Everything should be evaluated against your standards, and what is good, you follow. What is bad/evil/poor, you avoid. You don't give your mind over to "change is always good" mantra if you are a thinking person. After all, who says where the cheese moves is good? That question/discussion is never addressed.
Borrow this book from somewhere to read it if you wish - don't waste your money purchasing it.
 A bound shibbolethAug 18, 2010
Someone who I know extolled this book and therefore, I wasted neither my time nor money on it. As an alternative to this tripe, if you are interested in the topic of change, read "Future Shock" by Alvin Toffler. First published in 1970, it is a modern classic of culture today.
A Great BookAug 16, 2010
This is the cutest, funniest book I've read in a long time. It really starts you thinking about the choices we make in life and why fear should not be a part of those choices. Even a child could understand what the message is in this book. I highly recommend it to anyone who needs to make a decision of any kind in their lives.Who Moved My Cheese?: An Amazing Way to Deal with Change in Your Work and in Your Life
