WARNING: MORE STUPIDITY AHEAD

If your personal crystal ball gets foggy, you’d better buy at least two copies of THE DILBERT FUTURE . . . and maybe a few extra copies for your friends.

Just kidding. One copy will do just fine.

In THE DILBERT FUTURE, Scott Adams turns futurist, offering a bold, compelling – and often hysterical – vision of future society.

First, the good news: Human nature won’t change much; many, if not most of us, will continue to be guided by the immutable principles of stupidity, selfishness, and horniness – much as we are today, but with more advanced technology.

But there’s more! Drawing on his keen grasp of human nature and social dynamics, Adams daringly predicts key developments in every part of the futurescape.

For example, in THE DILBERT FUTURE, you’ll learn
- in the future, life definitely won’t be like Star Trek
- there will be a huge market for technology products that help workers goof off and still get paid
- internet capacity will increase indefinitely to keep up with the egos of the people using it
- your clothes will be smarter than you

In THE DILBERT FUTURE, you’ll learn about the two things that any company needs in order to bring bold new technology to market.

You’ll discover that skilled professionals will flee their corporate jobs and become their own bosses in ever-increasing numbers. They’ll become entrepreneurs, consultants, contractors, prostitutes, and cartoonists.

In THE DILBERT FUTURE, it will become increasingly obvious that your competitors are just as clueless as you are.

In THE DILBERT FUTURE, all barriers to market entry will disappear and companies will be forced to form “confusopolies.”

In THE DILBERT FUTURE, it will be easy to find customers who are gullible enough to buy any product, no matter how worthless and stupid it is.

In sort, it’s time for Nostradamus to step aside. In THE DILBERT FUTURE, Scott Adams dons his soothsayer’s robes and turns his piercing eye (and trenchant wit) to subjects as diverse as technology, the workplace, elections, the battle of the sexes, drive-through pet car, and the possibility of intelligent (or stupid) life on other planets. THE DILBERT FUTURE is a mind-boggling blend of farce and fact that plays our social hot buttons like a piano, leaving the reader gasping in both wonder and hilarity.
