I think you have this backwards. The poker books teach the correct way to play low stakes poker against calling station fish. The only flaw I can see in poker books is trying to apply low stakes strategy to high stakes games.
I've only read and/or dabbled a small number of books, but all the examples I have ever seen are for games like NL 10/20 and such. There are books like small stakes hold em which are different of course.

You can't tell me a guy who has been playing high stakes poker for 25 years is going to have a good perspective on how to play .10/.25 poker when he writes a book. I won't believe you.
