Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Stepped In It
Review: "Don't Step In The Leadership" is a collection of Dilbert comic strips from 1998. Scott Adams has accurately captured the idiocracy of life that is called work. Whether it's the pointy-haired boss trying (and failing) to manage his employees or Catbert: Evil H.R. Director prescribing an anti-depressant drug for Alice, you will be amazed at how much this art imitates your life.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Training Manual for Modern Management - Sad but True
Review: Adams, once again, proves that you can laugh at something not because it is funny, but because it is true. As comic relief for common cube dwellers, the reading of this book provides an excellent reason to delay (at least for a while)going "Postal" and providing what justice there may be found in corporate America. In the current competitive business environment, Scott's work also provides an excellent manual to be followed for those who wish to not only fit into established large business/government practices, but who wish to master and excel in policies and practices that are not readily comprehended by those with common sense.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Too close to reality for comfort!
Review: Despite a limited group of characters and settings, Scott Adams continues to find funny situations for his characters. Once again, over one hundred pages full of Dilbert cartoons and the bunch of characters that we all know so well.

Dilbert and his co-workers continue to fight their battle against pointy haired bosses, Dogbert and Catbert. My personal favourite in this collection is Dilbert's discovery that the Moon is populated by the women who love engineers but really, the whole collection is great.

These cartoons age very well compared to some strips in the newspapers and they certianly stand several readings. Highly recommended.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Don'T Step In The Leadership:A Dilbert Book
Review: Don'T Step In The Leadership:A Dilbert Book by Scott Adams tells it as it is. Adams hits the corporate greed, idiocy and the meaningless meetings that are part of all kinds of us organizations. This is a must have...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: He should burn in hell for being this funny!
Review: First of all, I got this book as a birthday present, and it probably didn't come from Amazon.com (but I've bought other stuff from here). Anyway, I don't know /where/ Scott Adams came up with the idea of talking animals, but it works. Now when I walk around my office, I can tell that my secretary is really a dog in heat, and my boss is really a donkey, and my cubicle-mate is really a rooster. That must be why Adams' animals all walk on two legs! Now they've made it into a TV show, and that's stupid, though, because animals on TV don't talk.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Usual Dilbert goodness
Review: I enjoyed this collection of Dilbert cartoons, as I do all of Scott Adams' compendiums. I can see some of Dilbert in me, and some of me in Dilbert (especially the bent tie), and easily recognize parallels between Dilbert's workplace and mine. I at least have an office and don't have to live with the cubicle dwellers and my boss is somewhat brighter than Dilbert's, but it's still scary how realistic Dilbert's world is.

I would have given this book 5 stars except all of these cartoons appear, in sequence, in my 2001 Dilbert desk calendar, so I've already read many of them and I have no reason now to flip to the next day on my calendar. That's almost Dilbert-esque, in a way.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: For the frustrated office worker!!!
Review: If you have a stupid, incompetent, ruthless, clueless, misplaced, overpaid, obnoxious, arrogant, ignorant, lazy, weird, nose-picking, SOB boss or co-worker (cow-orker), you'll really enjoy these to-the-point observations on corporate life in the 90's!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A poor joke for a good collection
Review: O.K. we got the joke.Dilbert's witty as usual.I think his Boss is an universal archetype:not only incompetent and arrogant,stupid and supponent,but uncaring and selfish,too! Dilbert is the Charlie Brown of the corporate digital era,and Dogbert is its cynic and disillusioned Snoopy.What a world! Harry trying to "work"the system,and the system well deserve it,but he's not really a model of honesty;much better innocent Asok and courageous and sarcastic Alice.The only way to survive in "the works " today is to take it whit some of the sardonic,surreal,tomguein cheek humour of Dilbert's strips!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Marvelous Dilbert Book Number 13
Review: This book is wonderful for any Dilbert fan, especially those fans who enjoy Alice and Catbert jokes, because there's many in here about them. This book offers more of Dilbert's misadventures in his office, and when he's not at work being tortured by his boss, he's at home with his cynical and sarcastic dog, Dogbert. Sometimes he may be with his mom, or talking to the overly intelligent garbage man. All of these aspects of Dilbert's life can drive him nuts, especially the office. So join his relatable office experiences, and laugh at Dilbert, Dogbert, Catbert, Alice, the boss, Wally, and the other characters' crazy comedies in this spectacular book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I loved it!!
Review: Working in a "real" business. I can relate to alot of the jokes....Ah if we could only get away with half of the stuff! Paradise! It's good for morale that Scott Adams keeps making these books...so infiltrate this one into the ranks too!! YOu won't regret it!
