Your New Job Title Is Accomplice: A Dilbert Book Description
As fresh a look at the inanity of office life as it brought to the comics pages when it first appeared in 1989, this 40th AMP Dilbert collection comically confirms to the working public that we all really know what's going on. Our devices might be more sophisticated, our software and apps might be more plentiful, but when it gets down to interactions between the worker bees and the clueless in-controls, discontent and sarcasm rule, as only Dilbert can proclaim.

My review is not about the content. The content is classic Scott Adams and is bound to entertain anyone working in an office environment. I was, however, dissatisfied with the kindle edition of this book. Each page displays three strips. This is too much content for the kindle (wifi model). I expected the kindle edition of the book to have been authored with "panels" that would display one strip on each page.

I like everything about "Dilbert", right down to my "Pumped From Using the Mouse" mousepad. But, sometimes the Dilbert collections go off on tangents that stray from the essential Dilbert. I'm thinking here about Elbonia, Dilbert fencing with his Mom, too much Catbert the evil HR director, and so on.
Well, this collection is primo cubicle Dilbert. There's a lot of Wally and of the pointy-haired boss. There are interns and there is Alice, as well as bitter secretary Carol. Most of the action is set in the office. You'll see more of the CEO, (he's the guy on the cover), and I'm happy to see top management getting a little more attention.
Curious, I checked and confirmed that the first Dilbert strips were published in 1989. I mention this only because it is amazing to me that this strip has lasted for 24 years and still manages to touch all of the right nerves. So, if your main question is whether Dilbert still has its mojo working and can still tickle you while depressing you in a non-lethal manner, the answer, to me, is "yes".
Please note that I received a free advance ecopy of this book in exchange for a candid review. Apart from that I have no connection at all to either the author or the publisher of this book.
