Working with a charitable organisation to create a portfolio of parenting and marriage resources, I wrote a range of summaries of social science, behavioural and lifestyle books, to support wider reading around the courses. This kind of summary also captures the key points of a text (as in a White Paper or Synthesis Report), but presents it to the reader in a more informal style.
The sample summaries featured below cover the well known Crucial Conversations (Patterson, Grenny, McMillan & Switzler), The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman, Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus by John Gray, and the 'Emotional Bank Accounts' concept developed by Stephen Covey in The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.
