Why Do People Write Poker Strategy Books?

From: http://raiseorfold.cardgrrl.com/2009/10/why-do-people-write-poker-strategy.html

I heard some GREAT players giving this reasoning as for why the online training sites (Card Runners, etc..) are not killing poker as we know it.

Poker is an emotional game.

Execute the right strategy consistently.
This is very hard to do!
Also it's scary to think you HAVE to do #4 for the rest of your working life (if you're a pro player). The authors want some other way to make money. They are qualified to write a poker book, so it makes sense even though they are giving precious (and rare) information away.
