Can I ask what you're hoping to get out of a book? You already seem aware of and thoughtful about the issue. (To the point you could identify a similar one in fiction.) I'm always loathe to recommend books about techniques -- almost invariably, they're used in a process-as-proxy way. (If I had one piece of advice of managers, it would be that -- don't manage by proxy!)
