Review:
Take a look into Scott Adams' crystal ball and catch a glimpse of the future of technology, democracy, ageing, capitalism, marketing, jobs, relationships, and (of course) work, illustrated with the doings of Dilbert and the gang.
Book Description:
So what does the Dilbert future hold in store? An acronym shortage, for one thing. Since there are only 26 letters in the alphabet, all the good ones will eventually be used up--a major problem for acronym-hungry businesses. In the future, your clothes will be smarter than you. Food stains will slide off their non- stick surfaces and you'll clean your clothes by taking them outside and shaking them off. All barriers of entry will go away and confusopolies will form: groups of companies that make similar products and that intentionally confuse customers instead of competing on price. In the future, men who use computers will be (gasp) sex symbols. Finally, rest assured that the future will bear no resemblance to Star Trek, because Star Trek didn't take the stupidity and selfishness of humans into account.
Dilbert returns! Offering his unique thoughts on what the future holds for mankind...

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Step aside, Bill Gates Here comes today′s real technology guru and his totally original, laugh-out-loud New York Times bestseller that looks at the approaching new millennium and boldly predicts: more stupidity ahead.

Now he takes the next logical step, turning his keen analytical focus on how human greed, stupidity and horniness will shape the future. Featuring the same irresistible amalgam of essays and cartoons that made Adams previous works so singularly entertaining, this uproariously funny, dead-on-target tome offers half-truthful, half-farcical predictions that push all of today′s hot buttons - from business and technology to society and government. Children - they are our future, so we′re pretty much hosed. Tip: Grab what you can while they′re still too little to stop us. Human Potential - we′ll finally learn to use the 90 percent of the brain we don′t use today, and find out that there wasn′t anything in that part. Computers - Technology and homeliness will combine to form a powerful type of birth control.
