The Best executive book summaries service is the one you use. Putting Book Summary into Google, the first one that pops up is Soundview executive book summaries. This site has a pretty deep pool of resources, all of which you must pay for. They have membership services, summaries by category, a Summary Store and audio library. Basically, they're the Amazon of Book Summary sites - but when you get into the meat of it - their summaries are quite long and dramatic. Their summary of John Maxwell's 360 Degree Leader is 8 pages of text - but no analysis. Get Abstract in another services that advertises heavily in Skymall magazine. Each of their summaries are 5 pages - about 10 minutes of reading.I love how their summaries start out: First the list of things you'll take-away from the book, second what you will learn from the book and then a short recommendation paragraph. That all precedes the summary. On the list GetAbstract is much more user friendly than Soundview.
This service melds the best of Get Abstract with analysis and video. In a short 4 - 5 minute video, Rick talks about the take-aways from the book, the high points and summarizes what the author wants you to learn. Honestly, isn't that what we really want from these great Business books of insight anyway?
Of the three Go Brevity combines the short summary, analysis and how you can use the lessons the best. And since reading is what you're not able to do now - he does it in 4 - 5 minute video segments, with the transcript and printed analysis ready for viewing and download.
