Each book summary is 8-pages long.
 
The first page in each summary is an index page. It contains:
1. A brief statement of the main idea of the entire book.
2. The key ideas of each section of the book summary.

The format of the remaining pages will then vary to suit the style of the information being conveyed. Frequently, each section will have its own page, containing:
1. The key idea for that section.
2. Supporting ideas which are used to provide additional clarification.
3. Key thoughts and quotes.

For some summaries -- particularly business biographies -- the summary will be in a narrative form. More frequently, however, the format explained above will be used.
