Another Day In Cubicle Paradise: A Dilbert Book [Paperback]

Scott Adams (Author)

Book Description

Series: Dilbert Book | Publication Date: March 1, 2002

When Dilbert first appeared in newspapers across the country in 1989, office workers looked around suspiciously. Was its creator, Scott Adams, a pen name for someone who worked amongst them? After all, the humor was just too eerily funny and familiar. Since then, Dilbert has become more than a cartoon character. He's become an office icon. In Another Day in Cubicle Paradise Dilbert and his cohorts, Dogbert, Catbert, Ratbert, and the pointy-haired boss, once again entertain with their cubicle humor. From bizarre personnel decisions to meetings gone bad, from schizoid secretaries to consultants from hell, Another Day in Cubicle Paradise provides a way to get all those darn comic strips off the breakroom bulletin board.

This review is from: Another Day In Cubicle Paradise: A Dilbert Book (Paperback)

Another Day in Cubicle Paradise is a 120-page (excluding title page, introduction, etc.) collection of Scott Adams' hilarious Dilbert cartoons. Dated between 2/5/01 and 11/11/01, these cartoons include all of the normal Dilbert crew: Dilbert, Alice, Wally, Asok, Dogbert, Catbert (a personal favorite), and so forth. All of these are printed in black-and-white (even though the Sunday ones appear in color in your favorite newspaper), but this is made up for by the fact that there are so many laugh-out-loud funny ones!

This book is great, a must-have addition to the library of any Scott Adams fan. Buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars It's Dilbert! What did you expect?, March 25, 2002

By 

Ed Stoudenmire "Technopeasant" (Tampa, FL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Another Day In Cubicle Paradise: A Dilbert Book (Paperback)

Like almost all other Dilbert books, this is a collection of daily and Sunday strips.

You were expecting Carl Sagan, maybe?

Of course it's funny... it's Dilbert, Dogbert, Wally, Alice, the PHB and all the rest of this Gilligan's Island of the modern American workplace.

There's really nothing new, but as a collection of very funny, very timely comic strips, it acquits itself nicely.

Buy it for your collection, or for a PHB near you. Either way, everyone wins.

This book gathers the daily and sundays comic strips that you could had found on a daily newspaper or on the dilbert homepage spanning Feb 2001 to Nov 2001.
