A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Updated 2010 edition of the razor-sharp parody dedicated to the millions of readers who either enjoyed or suffered through the motivational bestseller "Who Moved My Cheese?(tm)" "Who Cut the Cheese?" is a parable in which four characters must find a way through a maze in their hunt for "Cheese." But this cheese is actually symbolic of the things that we all want out of life: success and self-confidence, a nice house, a loving marital relationship, perfect children, a loyal dog, indoor plumbing, good Chinese food, several million tax-free dollars, and red-hot sex with multiple partners. The "Maze" in this story is symbolic of the twisting, turning, confusing, mugger-filled blind alleys of Your Life. And since you're being compared to a rat in this book, the whole "Maze" analogy works like a charm. When you come to see the "Psycho-babble on the Wall," you can discover for yourself how to deal with change and how to find the Cheese that will make your life joyous and fulfilling. Failing that, feel free to take crayons and color in the many pages with pictures. It's fun, it's therapeutic, and it will make it impossible for you to return this book for a refund.

Biographie de l'auteur

STILTON JARLSBERG, M.D. has made vast professional strides, which is no small accomplishment considering he is only six inches tall. By virtue of this fact, he was awarded a scholarship to medical school so that he might actually participate in experiments alongside lab rats as a human "control." His experience with mazes and cheesy rewards speaks volumes about the expertise he brings to the writing of "Who Cut the Cheese?" His previous book, "The One Minute Mangler," was originally the story of a psychotic, brutally sadistic serial killer. It sold fewer than a dozen copies. However, when he realized that many of the psycho killer's torture techniques were identical to methods used in the business world, he revised the book and released it as a nonfiction management manual, at which time it became a huge international bestseller. Following this unexpected success, Stilton Jarlsberg has published an entire series of "One Minute" books, and he eventually hopes to see them turned into a series of big budget feature films for people with exceedingly short attention spans.
