Book Review – Who Moved My Cheese?

By Dr. Spencer Johnson

I am constantly surprised and in no small measure disappointed to see Who Moved My Cheese? on the desk of some very smart people.

Wanna save $19.95? Here’s the book in three sentences:

Two mice live in a maze and eat cheese. One day the cheese is gone. One mouse panics and the other one heads out to find new cheese.

That’s it. That’s the entire book. Just repeat it over and over again, throw in some cheesy platitudes such as “Smell the Cheese Often So You Know When It Is Getting Old,” and glean your own moral. Trust me, you can come up with something at least as useful and interesting as Dr. Johnson did.
