Reframe Your Brain: The User Interface for Happiness and Success is a 2023 non-fiction book by Scott Adams.[1]
Publishing background[edit]
Reframe Your Brain was originally planned to be published September 12, 2023 by Penguin Random House's imprint Portfolio. However, after Adams received criticism regarding an episode on his YouTube channel, Real Coffee With Scott Adams, Portfolio decided not to publish the book. His literary agent also opted to stop working with him.[2][3][4]
On the show, Adams discussed a poll regarding the phrase "It's OK to be white", a slogan that had been associated with the alt-right and white supremacists. According to Adams, 47% of Black respondents indicated they either "disagreed with the statement" or weren't sure if they agreed with the statement. Adams responded to this by stating, "If nearly half of all Blacks are not OK with White people [...,] that’s a hate group. [...] The best advice I would give to White people is to get the hell away from Black people. Just get the fuck away."[2]
In addition to losing his book deal and literary agent, many newspapers stopped printing the Dilbert comic strip,[3] and Andrews McMeel Universal, who own the rights to Dilbert, also ended their relationship with Adams.[2]
Adams opted to self-publish the book, releasing it in August 2023.[5]
