Workbook is the 1989 debut solo album by American guitarist and singer Bob Mould, following the breakup of the influential punk rock band Hüsker Dü.

Drummer Anton Fier and bassist Tony Maimone, both of Pere Ubu fame, served as Mould's rhythm section on the album and on the subsequent live shows.

This remastered edition includes an extra track, "All Those People Know", and a second CD-only disc containing a 1989 live set by Mould at the Cabaret Metro in Chicago.

It does for introspection what Lou Reed's New York did for social awareness, and shares the feeling of catharsis John Lennon brought to 'How Do You Sleep?'

"[16] The Austin American-Statesman noted that "the emotionally draining album is littered with the charred remains of his former band, but the bitterness is framed with a sense of honesty and openness that's effectively reflected by Mould's singing.
