There is a tacit and implicit idea there that knowledge is something that something can have, while my view is that knowledge is a much more collective phenomenon.

And it's not something also that you can put in something like a book.

In my opinion, the book doesn't have knowledge.

The book is an archival record of some ideas that I was able to put together in a nice structure.

But you cannot have a conversation with the book.

Knowledge only can go to work when it's embodied.

You cannot throw a bunch of engineering manuals and cement into a gorge and expect to get a bridge.

Because the books don't have knowledge.

Teams have knowledge.

Organizations have knowledge.
