Why do I feel as if I have read something which disparages/rebuts her views?

Context? Have you just read the book and think that it is self-defeating? Perhaps your workplace experiences do not offer evidence to support the theories in the book? Perhaps you simply have read something that disparages her views previously and are only half-recollecting it.

I must admit, I've not read that one (Only "That's not what I meant!") so I'll have to pass.
