Dilbert and the Way of the Weasel
Scott Adams’
2002 satirical book,
Dilbert and the Way of the Weasel labels the everyday actions of
humanity as neither consistantly
honest nor
criminal, but rather
weasel. He dissects the aspects of weasel behavior and its explores its benefits and ramifications, sometimes referring to his own life experiences. However, the book is largely a rehash of Adams' other novels, most notably
The Dilbert Principle. Sales were further hampered by the backfiring of Adams' announcement that he would make
Dilbert lose his
virginity if the book became the number one seller on
Amazon.com, a
marketing promotion that Adams himself characterized as "what will someday be hailed as the worst idea of the century."
