Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the Goodreads database with this name. See this thread for more information.

Adams was born in Windham, New York in 1957 and received his Bachelor's degree in Economics from Hartwick College in 1979.

He also studied economics and management for his 1986 MBA from the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley.

In recent years, Adams has been hurt with a series of debilitating health problems. Since late 2004, he has suffered from a reemergence of his focal dystonia which has affected his drawing. He can fool his brain by drawing using a graphics tablet. On December 12, 2005, Adams announced on his blog that he also suffers from spasmodic dysphonia, a condition that causes the vocal cords to behave in an abnormal manner. However, on October 24, 2006, he again blogged stating that he had recovered from this condition, although he is unsure if the recovery is permanent. He claims to have developed a method to work around the disorder and has been able to speak normally since. Also, on January 21, 2007, he posted a blog entry detailing his experiences with treatment by Dr. Morton Cooper.

Adams is also a trained hypnotist, as well as a vegetarian. (Mentioned in, "Dilbert: A Treasury of Sunday Strips 00).

Dilbert is at it again and he still muddles through with help from Dogbert and rat. If you like your humor a little on the cruise then read and enjoy.

This is a compilation of three previous Dilbert volumes. They were published in the late 90s, so a few of the references to technology and jokes may seem a bit dated. However, the office humor and the overall funny dynamic of this comic strip remains as relevant as ever. Definitely worth reading again. A good book to pick up for a laugh or two now and then. A nice browsing volume.

I have always been a fan. Adams is a genius. He has the unique ability to see a business situation and see how crazy and messed up it is. Now that I work in an office, these books have become my bible. Every word is true.

I love Dilbert. Even though this is an older book, the sketches are still SO true today! (I happen to like my boss in real life, but corporate culture is funny in general.)

It's Dilbert. You either read the strip and you like it or you're in management.
