Peaks and Valleys

From the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of Who Moved My Cheese? A timely new parable that provides insight into how to be successful in both good times and bad, in work and in life.

Peaks and Valleys is a story of a young man who lives unhappily in a valley until he meets an old man who lives on a peak, and it changes his work and life forever.

Initially, the young man does not realise he is talking with one the most peaceful and successful people in the world. However, through a series of conversations and experiences that occur up on peaks and down in valleys, the young man comes to make some startling discoveries.

Eventually, he comes to understand how he can use the old man’s remarkable principles and practical tools in good and bad times and becomes more calm and successful himself.

Now readers can take a similar journey through the story and use what you find to your advantage in your own work and life.

Johnson is known for taking on complex subjects and presenting solutions that work. Peaks and Valleys shows through a simple parable how to get through the tough times in life, which in these uncertain economic times will appeal to a wide audience.

Who Moved My Cheese?, Johnson's previous mega-bestseller, has sold over 25,000,000 copies worldwide and 500,000 in Australia since its publication in 1998. It remains a fixture on many bestseller lists.
