Humorous Compilation of Sunday Strips

This book has five years worth of Sunday comics, bursting with wildly funny office humor. In my opinion, the Dilbert Sunday comics may be the best of Scott Adams's work. From Dogbert and Wally's sarcasm to the boss's stupidity, it all balances out with perfectly hysterical comics.

Great

This is the funniest book! It is in full color and all sunday comic strips. I highly reccomend this book.

A "must" for the growing legions of Dilbert fans

Dilbert: A Treasury Of Sunday Strips, Version 00 is a compilation of all the colorful Sunday cartoons of America's favorite corporate wage-slave, his zany colleagues, pointy-haired boss, and animal companions Dogbert, Catbert (the evil Human Resources director), and Ratbert. Dilbert is an amazing blend of irony, sarcasm, satire, and all-too-often painful truths about life in the modern business cubical. Dilbert: A Treasury Of Sunday Strips, Version 00 is a "must" for the growing legions of Dilbert fans.

Anybody who likes humor can enjoy this book.

Scott Adams must be one of the funniest men alive. If you doubt me, this book proves it. It's packed with every sunday strip from January 1st 1995 to December 26th, 1999. All of these are packed with all of the humor, sarcasm, and everything else that makes Dilbert enjoyable. I have read many of the Dilbert collection books, and I have to say this is the best, and is a must-own for any fan.

An antidote to the poisons of business culture

While all cartoons are entertaining, a select few reach the level of psychiatric therapy. Dilbert is an example of such a strip, providing us with comic relief as we face our troubles. Some situations are so absurdly impossible that the only possible coping mechanism is to laugh at the situation. The modern business culture is a complex entity, often dysfunctional and operating at breakneck speed. Many of these dysfunctional traits are parodied in this strip, exaggerated for emphasis, but not by much. This collection of strips is a laugh/cry dichotomy where all of us will recognize some of the situations as events in our working lives. Humor is one of the most powerful forces in the human psyche, sometimes it is the only antidote to the poisons of life. If you are looking for one of the larger does of this effective medicine, read this book.
