Generally I think my perspective on the issue is that a lot has been written already, and that people have a tendency to rewrite and bring-to-market content that is a rehash of existing knowledge, as opposed to gathering people together towards consensus (and expansion, and critique) of existing best-known information. Perhaps writing books is an expression of that; and perhaps my frustration is because I wonder whether we could do better in the digital age. In the context of workplace politics: again, these are all patterns that have been repeated for generations. Perhaps it's possible to document and make those patterns public, and then help people to view and decide upon the kind of workplace(s) they'd like to contribute to.
