Product Description

Maybe, just maybe, the reason Scott Adams is able to so completely and utterly skewer the absurdities of the modern workplace is that deep down he really enjoyed his many years as a cubicle dweller. Perhaps his comic strip Dilbert is nothing more than a cleverly disguised 17-year-long love letter to corporate America.

And maybe, just maybe, monkeys will fly out of Donald Trump's butt.

In Try Rebooting Yourself, AMP's 28th Dilbert collection, the world's most dysfunctional office family is back and doing what it does best. Wally adroitly steers clear of new assignments¿and perfects his "work grimace." The Pointy-Haired Boss (PHB) thinks of new ways to demoralize and disenfranchise his employees. (As part of a new strategy to make the pension plan solvent, he reminds employees "Smoking is cool.") Dogbert continues his lucrative consulting business. And Dilbert, alas, he soldiers and smolders on, searching for intelligent life in the corporate universe¿and maybe, just maybe, a little action. (Fat chance.)

This time out, the gang is joined by a host of odd (but strangely familiar) guest characters including the clueless Hammerhead Bob, and Petricia, the PHB's fawning but ferocious sycophant. All office workers may now nod knowingly.

About the Author

While suffering through a succession of mid-tier banking and technology jobs in the 1980s, Scott Adams amused himself by indulging in chronic doodling. Dilbert soon emerged as the main character of his doodles, and Scott started using the character to lighten up training presentations. The Dilbert comic strip was first syndicated in 1989 and has gone on to become one of the most successful comic strips in history. It appears in 2,000 newspapers in 65 countries. Scott Adams grew up in upstate New York and graduated from Hartwick College in Oneonta. He holds an MBA from UC-Berkeley and is a certified hypnotist.

5.0 out of 5 stars As wickedly funny as always, December 9, 2006
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Featuring eight bonus stickers to liven up anyone's cubicle, Try Rebooting Yourself is cartoonist Scott Adams' latest compilation of Dilbert cartoons, which savagely mock and jeer corporate ineffectualness, human obnoxiousness, and the literally cutthroat (or shove-off-a-roof) competition of office politics. A special point of interest is a short series of strips in which Adams dares to break the fourth wall and draw himself into a few cartoons! As wickedly funny as always, Try Rebooting Yourself is the perfect dose of humor anywhere and anytime, but especially recommended as an inexpensive gift of gut-busting laughter for Secretary's Day, Boss' Day, or co-worker birthdays. "You know what two things are very similar? Unpaid overtime and death. They both deny me the pleasures of being alive."

4.0 out of 5 stars Dilbert is still striking!, June 7, 2007
It's indeed amazing to see how Scott Adams, after almost twenty Dilbert years, is still capable to make us laugh this way. Not a brainless laughter but an inteligent one and with the usual subtlety he always manages to put into his characters. I own many Dilbert books but this one has no repeated strips - just good plain humor. I loved it.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
A compilation of the Dilbert comic strip for a 40 week period.
If you want all his comics from day 1, buy all the bound books, which is now up to #29.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love Dilbert
If you like Dilbert you will like this book. A good collection of the daily strip. Buy and enjoy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, hilarity ensues
Great dilbert collection. However it's on the thin side. I read the whole thing in one night. The stickers it comes worth aren't the best design. Read more
