Scott Adams. Harper Collins, Reprint edition (June 4, 1997) ISBN 0-887-30787-6.

Adams worked in a cubicle at Pacific Bell for nine years. From there he went on to pen the wildly popular cartoon Dilbert, which appears in over 700 newspapers. He is also the author of six Dilbert books and an electronic Dilbert newsletter. The Dilbert Principle asserts that the most ineffective workers are systematically moved to the place where they can do the least damage: management. -- Library Journal.
