Yep, I have all those books behind me too :)
I do think there is space for a new category, or way of thinking about these businesses though. There's lots of great "regular / non-tech business" advice and books etc on how to operate in a non-VC way. But we're still talking about startups / tech companies here. So it's how do you marry the advice on operating a regular business with many of the dynamics of a VC backed business (that is, competative advantage, compounding growth, large market, high margins, attracting talent etc).
