Rating: Summary: way, way, way beyond funny Review: This book will change your life. I'm not kidding. Nothing
will ever be the same again. Prepare to laugh until you struggle for breath flat out on the floor while the tears
stream down your face as you desperately try to maintain
control of all your ... functions in front of appalled
family and friends. My all-time favorite Dilbert book!
Rating: Summary: HA HA HA HA HA !!!!! Review: This is one of my favorite collections. Most of the strips are originals and are very different from the other Dilbert collections. Dogbert is extremely funny, and you can read this book over and over and over again and still laugh as if it were the first time. Trust me, it's that good.
Rating: Summary: Dilbert before it got to be all about complaining about work Review: This is the book that got me originally hooked on Dilbert, and I still think it is Scott Adams' best work. The Dilbert strip, over the years, has gotten to be less about life as a well-meaning nerd, and more about the workplace, and I think a lot of very good humor has gotten lost. The humor here covers everything from dating etiquiette, to explaining why the extra fork is there, to dealing with insurance companies. Much more amusing than simply complaining about incompetent managers !

Rating: Summary: Why Can't Scott Adams Be More Like This Now? Review: This is the third and probably the funniest Dilbert book out there! This book is so funny,you'll laugh out loud roughly every six seconds, it's hillarious and true to life. This book is not a normal Dilbert book either, rather then being just a collection of about nine months worth of daily and Sunday comics it's full of big ( one taking up a full page ) origninal strips specially made for this book featuring the master of wit and sarcasm Dogbert as he explains basic human ediquit in a hillarious and true to life manner. ( let's see how many times I can write the words " Hillarious " and true to life " ) Even though this book was obviously made as a clever market ploy by Scott Adams to get the strip off the ground and get a little more cash in his pocket ( in the early days the strip was not phenomana that it is today, infact sales were less then mediocre ) it's still clear that he had alot of fun making this book and you'll have alot of fun reading it. This book was made before Dilbert became a comic strictly composed of workplace humor so it focuses on all sorts of topics. Personally I wish the strip would be more like that now. I mean I think the office gags are really funny, but now that Scott has achieved his maximum popularity I wish he would go back to some of the old formula's again and have Dogbert make some clever sarcastic shemes again that don't have to do with bussiness consulting. So in short, if your a Dogbert fan or you've never even read the Dilbert comic or your a fan of sarcastic humor, or you just plain like buying stuff because it's out there then buy this book and prepare to be cheered up for about thirty-five minutes.Hillarious and true to life!
Rating: Summary: It's not as good as they are now Review: This seems like one of the first Dilbert books ever written, and as so, I don't think it's a very good read compared to the other currently available Dilbert books. This one uses much bigger frames for one; 4 frames per page, making the approximately 4 times bigger than the regular comic strips. This makes it seem like I'm a child reading a children's book, I must say; but this isn't the point.
My point is that there are newer and better Dilbert books available right now, and you should read those ones that are also more relevant to today's business world, than this outdated one (even though not that outdated, as I said before and will say again, there are newer ones that you should rather turn your eyes to.)
Rating: Summary: Wonderful Dogbert Book Review: This was my first Dilbert book that I ever read, and I enjoyed the humor in it very much. Before, I didn't understand the office jokes, but these jokes were simpler, but still, very funny. These comics weren't printed in newspapers. It's a guide on being polite, told by the all time most sarcastic dog of the comics, Dogbert. He guides you into proper etiquette, with cynical insights on what to do when you don't want to offer the last donut to anyone, or when you're in an office elevator. These jokes are just as humorously fresh as the business jokes, but totally different. I recommend this book for Dilbert and Dogbert fans, or for people who want to start becoming one. This book introduced me to Dogbert, and lead me into becoming a huge Dilbert fan. Excellent book.
Rating: Summary: Dilbert Or Kenny G? Review: Which would you rather buy? Your hard earned cash is better spent here on one of the funniest books in the Dilbert series!
Rating: Summary: Unbelievable stuff Review: Wow. I'm at a loss for words. I agree 100% with everything everyone said about this book, except for the guy who gave it one star. Woah. I think I've read this hundreds of times and each time it is just as funny. It speaks truths in life that are SOOOOO funny. Get this. It really will change your life. This is the book that got me into Dilbert and it will do the same for you if you aren't already
