Summarized at the Highest Quality
getAbstract’s relationships with more than 400 publishers ensures that our clients can remain constantly up-to-date while investing very little time. Our publishing partners and their authors trust and respect our information. For example, our partnership with Harvard Business Review Press gives getAbstract the rights to summarize their books and release abstracts promptly with its approval and the approval of the authors. Our professional writers and editors, who are subject area experts as well as experienced business journalists, ensure top quality.
Staying abreast of key business trends is vital to professional success. And much of this expert knowledge resides in books. But the average business book takes 10 hours to read. Thus, the typical manager completes just one business book a year, barely skimming the surface of crucial business knowledge.

Abstract features
Our experienced business writers compress all of the most important points of a book into just five pages. Each summary is readable in only 10 minutes, instead of the 10 hours it can take to read an entire book. As a result, most getAbstract users download dozens of book summaries each year, maximizing their exposure to important business literature.
