Book descriptionIt's back to Columbia Internet, "the friendliest, hardest-working, and most neurotic little Internet Service Provider in the world," for our third installment from the hit online comic, User Friendly.

Review:This is not another book with collected Dilbert strips, but a humourous view of Scott Adams on the future. He plays with the standard views of the future (like Star Trek) and goes on with his view on management. Subjects like health, technology, democracy, capitalism, the gender balance, working (including managers and job searching), marketing and social security are discussed.

All in all a reasonably funny book, but not as accessible and easy to read as some of the other Dilbert books. Whether this is good or bad for you is up to you :)
