One last thing and I'm done ... "Who Moved My Cheese?" is an enjoyable book and it makes its point. Personally, I find this book and "The One Minute Manager" (same author) interesting, but not necessarily the best value for your book dollar. Thomas Friedman's book "The Worlds is Flat", on the other hand, is a steal at $16.50: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0374292884/sr=8-1/qid=1142289080/ref=pd _bbs_1/102-7772256-4527332?%5Fencoding=UTF8 This is not a feel-good book. This is a "the train is coming and you'd better get off the tracks" book. Having said that, however, I feel a *LOT* better equipped to deal with the realities of a global economy after reading Friedman's book than I did after reading "Who Moved My Cheese?" and discovering that I should Smell My Cheese Often So I Know When It's Getting Old. That having been said, I'm going to chuckle as I drive home.
