Everything is laid out in an intuitive fashion so you can find what you need, when you need it.

The actual summaries are displayed on the left hand side of the page along with the option to mark each summary as "read" or as a "favorite." Summary categories are listed on the right hand side.

Summaries: The purpose of each summary is to convey the primary ideas of the book along with strategies for implementation. The summaries are always displayed in descending date order, i.e. newest on top.

Summary Formats: As noted, the summaries are available in four main formats: text, audio, video and Memory Sticks. Not all formats are available for all summaries.

Summaries are available in both PDF and web text formats plus optimized versions for various mobile devices (smartphone, Kindle, iPad).
